I can hear someone knocking the sound of And they whisper the word Through the mist with a flintlock in his clothes were torn and dirty as he stood there by my bed He took off his three cornered hat and speaking low to me he said We fought a revolution to secure our liberty We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny For future generations this legacy we gave In this the land of the free and home of the brave The freedoms we secured for you, we hoped you'd always keep. But tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this, the land of the free, home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent. Your children must attend a school that doesn't educate and your Christian values can't be taught According to the state you read about the current news in a regulated press and you pay attacks you do not owe to please the IRS Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold you trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame You've taken Satan's number. You've traded in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seasonally farm and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors so their children won't be born. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you'll fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? O sons of the Republic, arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the Land, preserve our great Republic and each God given right, and pray to God to keep the torch of freedom burning bright. As I awoke, he'd vanished in the mist from whence he came. His words were true. We are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trample each God given right we only watch in tremble too afraid to stand and fight if he stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep and Wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep What would be your answer if he called out from the grave? The drums the drums I hear the drums good afternoon ladies and gentlemen, this is the First hour of the afternoon intelligence report, I'm our car key One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines in occupied territories North Northeast East Southwest Actual ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com LibertyTreeRadio.org And we're on satellite, we're on a myriad of communications technologies, both inside and outside the United States. It is Weapons Wednesday. It is the... Well... My goodness, it's the 22nd of June already. You know what? But fascinating for the last, what, four years. What was the 22nd of June, Mike? I was kind of thinking about that. Interesting things happened in each of the 22nd of June for the last four going on five years. But nothing to make go wow about today. Isn't that fascinating? Anyway, it is the 14th year of open, obvious and pissing in your face, Fabian the socialist. and Soviet socialist occupation of America with a K and it's very obvious by watching the defecate, you know, the turds, the excrement, the sputum, the disgusting ilk, the filth in Washington right now, the toilet stains in Washington that make up the bureaucracy. Oh, and those elected pedo queers that we have that are the other bunch. Anyway, it is 2022 Old Earth Calendar, 2022 Battle for the Republic, the Dance of Swords. And I'll tell you what, right off the bat, Edward, if you could pull up the latest guns and gadgets, there should be a follow up, actually, first, is the follow up on the situation with the Senate, what happened there. And again, we should have a who's who in the zoo, a good member, know who everybody is, decided they needed to be a Democrat in the Senate. Even if they are elected in as a Republican, the dirty rhino whores showed their true colors, red and yellow. And we need everybody to know exactly by name who they are, because once this war kicks off, Well, there's certain people just gonna be looked for and they are no place they're gonna be able to hide It's that simple the other side figures. Oh, it's it. They're working after those guys in the Patriot. Well, yeah, well, whatever Get for tat 24 hours a day seven days a week 365 days a year our turn And if you haven't seen my review for it, check it out on the channel. I really, really enjoyed my Aventon bike and I know you will too. Thank you to Aventon for sponsoring this video. And if you're interested in getting your own Aventon bike or to learn more, there's a link in the description and in the pinned comment. Now onto today's video. Alright, welcome back everybody. I appreciate each and every single one of you. Thank you for your time. If you didn't get to see the marathon video, it was like 40 minutes that I did last night going through the entire bipartisan gun control bill. Here's a quick little synopsis. I'm going to tell you what's in it. I'm going to tell you some factors of it, some things that you might want to be aware of. But first, I want to remind you of the 14 Republicans who voted for this so far. Now, this bill is not passed yet. This is yesterday was a procedural vote that allows this bill to proceed for debate. There won't be much debate if they can keep these amount of Republicans that helped the bill pass. Now it passed 64 to 34, which means if we can get five of the people who signed on to back this to change their mind through the remainder of this week before the final vote, which is scheduled for Thursday. And if they have votes Friday. potentially Friday, but they want it done before Friday. So that's staying today and tomorrow. So as a reminder, here are the 14 Republicans who voted last night to allow this bill to continue, thus violating our rights, our God given rights, our individual liberties. And I'm going to give you those NRA grades of these people. Remember the NRA? We stand for freedom. Check this out. The first one is Senator John Cornyn of Texas, who oddly enough, He has an A plus rating from the NRA. Senate leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, who also has an A plus rating from the NRA. Senator Tom Tillis of North Carolina, who has an A rating from the NRA. Senator Susan Collins of Maine, who has a B rating from the NRA. Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, an A rating from the NRA. Senator Bill Cassidy of Louisiana. who has an A rating from the NRA. Senator Roy Blunt of Missouri, who has an A rating from the NRA. Senator Richard Burr of North Carolina who has an A plus rating from the NRA. Senator Mitt Romney of Utah and now he has an A rating from the NRA. He's taken in a ton of money from the NRA and he was a former governor here in Massachusetts and that cat is not pro-gun at all. The NRA needs to get their head out of their rear ends. Senator Rob Portman of Ohio, he has an A rating from the NRA. Senator Shelley Moore Capito of West Virginia, she has an A rating from the NRA. Senator Joni Ernst of Iowa, she has an A rating from the NRA. Senator Lisa Murkowski from Alaska, she has an A rating from the NRA. Senator Todd Young of Indiana, he has an A plus rating from the NRA. So guys and gals if and this is not a shot at anybody out there if you are still someone who supports deeply the NRA and their letter grading for candidates. This should show you that it's horrible. If the person has an A rating from the NRA or an A plus rating, it's supposed to mean they're really pro-gun, right? These candidates can't miss. Well, all of them are highly rated, at least a B rating from the NRA. So that tells you something, doesn't it? Right now, what's in this bill? Over $750 million has been set aside to assist states with, among other things, red flag laws. the money is there to bribe states into getting a red flag law, 19 states have it currently. However, the way they worded it is interesting. I went through it in detail in last night's video, that'll be linked above. The way they worded it, it kind of makes it impossible for a red flag law to be created and still be a red flag law. Now, I'm not supporting this bill in any way, just telling you that the way it was written... It doesn't allow it to be a red flag law and for those who don't know what it is I've done a couple videos about what a red flag law is within especially within the last two weeks I did one I'll have that floating above to check that out But if you want more detail watch last night's video I go over every single section of the bill The next part is the boyfriend loophole. And this, again, is not needed. This is going to make more people federally prohibited for misdemeanor crimes, not felonies, not convicted of felonies. But the boyfriend loophole puts more people in a group of prohibited persons federally. And you can get your rights back five years after said conviction or after you're released from prison. or jail or your supervised sentence. So long as you haven't committed any more crimes. Big Brother's always watching. The next part that we should be aware of and concerned about is the expansion of what a federally licensed firearms dealer is. They're going to require more people to register as FFLs, and it could be as easy as this. You have bought a gun, whatever. $6,320 and you don't like the the the talk the scuttlebutt that it might just decide to go bang on its own one day So you sell it the markets crazy. You might have bought it for 500 bucks. You can sell it for 700 bucks. That's capitalism, right? Same with you buy a house. Nobody wants to sell it for a loss. So because you made money in that transaction unless you meet two criteria Selling off your entire collection because you're done or trading in items to further your collection. If you're just selling the gun and you make a profit, then you're considered to be needing to be an FFL. And another thing, page 33, line 6, and I went back and forth with Mr. Gunzingier about this one because as soon as we read it, we knew what this was supposed to mean. If your job or your soul reason for working with guns and advertising guns is to make money to make profit like think of youtubers advertisers stuff like that then you have to then become an FFL in their minds, so that's dangerous and this expansion of who needs to be an FFL also opens the door to the universal background checks It's an easy way for them to do that for the next step Trust me. That's not good The next section is the expanded background checks on groups of individuals or all individuals ranging from ages 19, 19, 18, 19, and 20. 18, 19, and 20. That's the under 21 people who purchase a gun. It's expanded background checks. They're going to look into the juvenile records of these people as well as mental health issues with these people and to see if they're federally prohibited. And the shortest amount of time allotted is a three-day wait. And if they find something within that three days, then they have ten days. And these are business days, not just days. So you've got to realize weekends and holidays do not count. And if you are purchasing your gun after the close of business for state offices, that day doesn't count. So keep those in mind. So, three to ten day wait period and that is looking for issues that are often sealed in states and will be proved to become difficult for these people to get in a three day, ten day window at times. I also think this creates a second class of gun purchaser where they have to jump through hoops that others don't and that's not cool nor do I think it's legal. Now they also create a new crime of gun trafficking and straw purchasing. Both of which have already been illegal for a long time. Both of which are already on the books, no need for these. And then there's a ton of money. I think the total amount when I went through it last night was like 20 billion dollars, 20 billion billion dollars. And then that rest is for mental health issues as well as school security issues, which, yeah, I mean, that needs to be done. And that's the concern. So that is a nutshell of this bill all rolled up into one. I hope that you will please discuss this with people who may not know and please forward this and like the video if you got anything out of it. Remember, there is still time before the final vote to put an immense amount of pressure on these 14 Republicans. And if you live in an area that has pro-gun Democrats, there are some out there still. It's rare, but pressure them as well and make sure that they don't vote for this final vote. Tell them to vote absolutely not. I'll have a link in the description as well as the number, the phone number for the Senate switchboard and you can call them. You can email them. You should reach out on their Instagram, their Twitter, their Facebook. If you go to my Instagram, link is in the description, but it's guns underscore and A and D underscore gadgets. The last post I put up as of the recording of this is a picture of the US Constitution and I tagged every single one of them in the description. You can just click on it and send them a note and tell them, hell no. Guys and gals, let me know what you think about this down below. I've talked to a couple people in the last... 12 hours since this thing been out 13 hours. Some people are totally hell no like myself. Some people are eh, it's not that bad. It could have been worse and some people are like yes, this needed to be done. Where do you stand? Again, we're all entitled to our own opinion, but we're not entitled to our own facts. Shall not be infringed means shall not be infringed till we see each other again be safe stay vigilant carry a gun and keep you your friends your family your community safe Thank you for your time. Please subscribe to the channel if you haven't already and I'll see you in the next one. Take care Again, that was guns and gadgets. That's the latest, you know Who do you think your biggest enemy is in the worst in the situation? We're in right now. What do you think? You're good. The greatest threat to you is right now as a patriot as a pro-gun person as Well, let's say you were actually conservative. And notice I didn't say republorette because that's not being conservative. It is even close. And it's demonstrated by what we're seeing here. But if you really are, for the fundamentals, you know, and for the foundation principles of the country, who do you think is the person that's most dangerous to you? Who do you think the group is that's most dangerous to you and to the freedom of the country? More important is your personal freedom. Your personal, you know, in other words, let's say this continues. What kind of person do you think is the person that you can least trust? First of all, I say least trust because I have no trust for the, let's throw, first of all, throw out the demic, demicans and the communists. We already know if they're in the bureaucracy, they hate you. If they're a leftist slash a hyper communist, Fabian socialist, although some of them don't know what a Fabian socialist is. But whatever kind of parasite you have on the other side, I'm a competence in them. I already look at them as simply a target, you know, and if there's a cluster among one place, it's a target rich environment. I'm talking about in the people that you deal with, who do you think is the most dangerous to you as an individual and your family or your group, your people in the supposed other side? Anybody? Chime in. Who do you think it might be? And remember, this is not high school. Nobody's ridiculed here. We want people to express themselves. Okay, you're not gonna get rid of killed for whatever response. In fact, typically your response is right. It just, I probably will blame, I'll embellish it. I'll add more to it. So who do you think is the group that you're, you know, like if you had 40 people in a room, you went to a meeting, and they just talked about what they're doing here right now. Who would be the most dangerous person to have around you that supposedly would be on the conservative, patriot side? That isn't but would claim to you know is is riding in your circles. Oh, we're local PT Hey Mark. Well, go ahead fellas. Yeah, let's be reasonable Yeah Yeah We're still what did did he just say here? He talked to a bunch of people and there's three different kinds of people That he talked to which one do you think could be the most dangerous to your to your life? and to your freedom and who's most likely to betray you. In other words, we're heading into a crisis. The enemy is blatantly showing their fangs. They're already showing their cat eyes and their shark teeth, et cetera. Of the three groups, just listen to what he said there. One group said, oh, hell no. And then the other said, well, there's some things. Now, I wouldn't trust a person who says that. But the ones that I absolutely don't trust. Supposedly they're in the gun circles and oh yeah, this is great Really? If you have anybody right now Who is expressing that kind of position? It's a good thing. It is a good thing to know progressively exclude them from your circle until eventually they're there they're not really they don't realize that you're not inviting them, but Most important is anything that's critical to your personal defense, absolutely exclude them. Deflect them, make a point of, yeah, no, we're not doing much of anything. No, we're, yeah, we were planning on something on Thursday, but no, there's nothing going on. Everybody else, yeah, you're still gonna be there for Thursday, but that person doesn't need to be there. And when you do express anything, When you do express anything about what's going on well, you know, everybody's just kind of giving up What the heck and that's the idiots and since the idiot stick already stated he likes with these bewitches are doing He's riding with the other side You do understand that if you have somebody who claims that they're pro-gun and they're in favor of any part of this They're not In fact, they're they're logic in their own little pea brain is they're trying to lick the bunghole of the other side so they can make brownie points because after all, you know, yeah, when the time comes, they'll hand their guns over. And if they need to make a deal, they'll betray you too, because they'll be what Marcellus said earlier. Reasonable. Good color. Hey, this is Carl in Virginia. You can agree 100%. The funny thing is, they keep saying, you know, we're going to compromise. This isn't a compromise. This is a surrender. A compromise is each side gets something they want. So, okay, let's say, okay, we're going to do the red flag, but then also we're going to take a Short-barreled rifles short-barreled shotguns and sound suppressors off the list of NSA regulated items Okay, that would be a compromise. So this is just flat-out surrender because we don't get anything at all that we want as gun owners, right? Oh, no, we remember you had that one liar. He goes well, you know, in fact, it's a court. What is it? Corrin Well look they wanted this this is the typical bucket of poison thing where they outrageously ask for a massive whatever and they have their useful idiot like this fake Republic rat slash this rhino and the fake Of course is gonna sit there and tell you well they wanted all of this and so look we they're they only are gonna have this this and this now But look at all this other stuff that they wanted. I don't give a shit what they wanted Other than the fact that they should get nothing, okay, anything else that you do, you're not bragging to me. But they actually, that's how the Idiot Stick isolated rhino-pedo queers, how these buffoons think. You know, like I said, they got their three little eight-year-old boys or girls last night for, you know, Screw It America. They'll probably promise when they get the rest of this through on Thursday that they'll get eight little, you know, little eight-year-old Vestal Virgins that they can rape till they, you know, they rape them to death, you know, they're bleeding all over the place. They don't care. They're gonna get their pedo hunger satiated. I'm not saying Mark lately. I personally there's as far as I'm concerned these assets are showing their real their true colors and What they're riding with? Go ahead callers. I've been there, please Hey mark the cyber, you know the issue of compromise reminds me I don't know why anybody would need ar-15 parts or 30 round magazine I have a Blankety-blank whatever shotgun and that I shoot Right. That's the kind of idiocy that, again, the people are using. There's a term that's come up in the last several years, and it's because people, every cycle somebody is stupid enough to, just like you said, make that kind of a comment because There are idiot sticks who feel that they're gonna make their deal with the devil and they'll screw all of you in the process. See, when a person declares that, understand what they're declaring is that they want your weapons that as a, they're gonna get their guns while yours need to be taken, which means that asset needs to be shot with the rest. Hey, Mark, and I wouldn't think twice about it because you see, here's the thing. These are the kind of jackasses will be that bad. They're not a good, they're, what I've said a million times, better to have a good enemy to your front than a bad friend to your rear, okay? We expressed this yesterday. And it's exactly what you're seeing right now, like I've said. So that twerp with the trap gun isn't riding side by side with you. They're waiting for the opportunity to stick a knife between your shoulder blades. That's the jackass that's going to betray you. That's the asshat. Who by the way is so shallow that as he gets older because it's just a passing fancy eye trap shoot. Well when he finally gets, you know, tired of that because he's got another fad that he read in a magazine, then that shallow hell piece of crap will go on to something else. But that's the kind of turd that, you know, again, they're calling them fuds now. And I know, you know, they'll look fud. But in reality, that's not a fud, that's a shallow hell because it's even a hunter. You know, the fud implies, well, the guy's just, I'm just a hunter and I don't do this and I don't do that. Well, whatever, okay? You think that if you separate yourself from all the rest of the gun owners, that somehow you're kind of some idiot stick, you know, pet puppy? You gotta be dumb as a stinking box of rocks. Believe that stuff. Because that's what the other side figures is. That you've got some kind of idiot shoe size IQ and you'll believe whatever dog vomit they spew out. Even Obama's shy. I'm sorry, repeat again, caller. Repeat. I said even Obama was a ski shooter. Yes, of course. Remember the weapons facing. Go ahead, Phyllis, I heard you. Please, go ahead. I wonder how much of this stuff is in the USMCA. There's been a lot of bills lately within the last year or two. They've come out, it seems like, because if you're going to do this Canadian, Mexican, American thing, United States thing, You have to have everybody on the same, basically on the same page. Well, right, which Mexicans aren't allowed to have guns. Canadians aren't allowed to have guns. And that would mean that Americans wouldn't be able to have guns as well. Because, you know, they put all this stuff in the USMCA. So that would mean everybody here. And then you have to equal out the population too. That's one of the other things too. You have to equal out the population. So it's pretty much voting or whatever you think you're going to do to change the politics is pretty much because you're not doing anything to change politics. It's just not going to happen. So, and that's part of the two. And then there's a council. There's got to be a council sometime that's being set up or it's set up now. I would suspect, personally, that there is a council set up already, and that is what's part of what's leading these people in Washington, D.C. Not all of it, but part of it. So I would suspect that there's a delegation somewhere that we don't know about. Something's going on that we don't know about and we're not privy to. That would be the economy as well too, because you got to crush that too, because you're going to have one currency for this entire area. And then you're going to have a dictator's shiplet just like they do in Europe. I mean, they thought England thought they were out of this mess. Actually, they're deeper in it than they ever were. Just a couple thoughts, that's all. Well, the thing is, this is always, it's not always, it's just whenever they do this, all of the same agenda is plugged in with each of the new scams or schemes that they've brought forward. The UN Small Arms Treaty ties in with the North American Trade Agreement, Free Trade Agreement, FTR, whatever, and remember, they've changed it up intentionally so that they keep maintaining confusion. Oh, it's not that, it's something else. Oh, you know, kiss my hind end. Whatever an acronym you come up with, here's how it works. You got a bunch of socialists, they want to screw America. Canada's, you know, commonwealth, Mexico is Jewish run, you know, Israeli mafia. Although Canada is too, really. And we're of course stuck with that little minority trying to screw us every step of the way to plug us into the, well, remember what the rabbi said. Make no mistake about it, my brethren. Communism is Jewish choice. The rabbi said this and by the way it is it is it is documented in the Encyclopedia Judaic. So the fact that they're pushing the agenda the way that they are well and that these particular turds are I'd like to know how many are masons. Which of these asshats are mates? I guarantee that that the Texan is Mason. Okay, it's a Mason. And I just go right down the list. So the law just told them they got to get they got to get this kami crap done. That's what it comes down to. And all their little bunnies and the state police like here with the Blue Lodge in Michigan, or the Blue Lodge in Connecticut, or Massachusetts, or wherever. Yay, yay, they've all been told time to screw America. It's time to destroy the union, to destroy the republic, to destroy the Constitution. Because they've latched in and been invaded by the Lodge of the continent. And it means the lodge of Europe, okay, which by the way was always a threat from the get-go Another thing is again paying attention to all of this the little snide comment that Asshat made when he was in Texas as everybody pointed out is everybody in the crowd booed him and well, I'm not gonna change my well, we're good. We knew it wasn't gonna be changed anyway. That turns already sold out. He got his eight. He got his three eight year old little girls and you know rape. He probably raped at least one to death last night for the fun of it because he just you know, he's got to save two for the party pack. But as far as these petal queers go, No, they're selling the country out. Here's the thing about it, and again, I don't know if Jared's talked about, discussed this quietly, and just not talking about it yet, but remember, all of this will be amended immediately. Once they get a critical component like this done, they will have another crisis and immediately bum rush and just tack on and complete the rest of the wall. That's all there is to it. It's in fact the whole idea everybody all of a sudden no matter who you are you requires an FFL piss on that shit We need to shoot them if all of a sudden anything and everything you do and guns is restricted It's you this not right. It's become a a monarch old privilege that it's time to shoot their ass So we're at the point where whatever they're gonna do they're gonna do Everybody I've talked to in the last 24 to 40 hours has said the same thing. You know what? It's like, let them pass it. Call them up in Washington. The only thing I would say with the Republicans is this. What you've proven to me is there ain't no reason to spend any money on the Republican Party to donate to anybody because it doesn't mean anything. You want to have an effect on them? And I'm dead cold serious and you mentioned this like over at Guns and Gadgets. Go into all these videos. You want to have an effect? You call these stinking Republic rats up and tell them a cold day at a hill. This stuff with what you've already done, you've proven to me that there isn't a dime's worth of difference between the Republic rats and the Demikin communists, but you're all the same communists. So I have no intention of ever, ever, ever donating money to the Republican party again. And there's nothing you're gonna do to change it now, so go ahead and sink the ship. Everybody needs to, if you really want to have an effect tonight, leave it on the machine. You know what, you've proven to us that the Republic rats are just like the Demikins and ain't no sense in spending any money on the Republic rat party piss on it. You'll get your money from Soros just like the other ones did. They're probably already are anyway. So you don't need us. You don't want us. You hate us. They already said that we're all the mob. I always love this. You know, when that piece of crap made that comment. He sat on his dead asses for two, three years. All these leftists burned the country down. And you know what? He didn't jump up out of his chair. He didn't scream or holler. No, no, no. But all of a sudden, all the peasant republic rats who were supposed to be docile, tax paying idiots who would just go along with whatever it is that they shoved down their throats, especially if it's a leftist rap like this. And, oh, how dare you? How dare you not like the dog vomit that this lofty senator is going to shove down your throat? You should enjoy the dog vomit that he's introducing and going to shove down your throat. How dare you? Yeah, how dare you? Exactly. See, that's the problem with this is, again, just thought I'd explain to him. Do we really need to wait? to see what's gonna happen with a whole pile of turd, republicans of the kinds that we presently are seeing in front of us, doing more of the same BS that they did for the first two years when Trump was in. And then for the next two years, they had the excuse that they were just all in confusion cuz they didn't have the simple majority that they had both in the House and the Senate. So they just couldn't get anything done. So they said in their dead ass for four years when they had an opportunity. Okay, so what's the big deal about, well, we're going to get the Republicans rats in. Why? The Republicans rats couldn't get their act together and their life did depend on it. So the election process, by default with regard to the fake election, demonstrates the ballot box is dead. The actions of the Republicans rats in not acting against the illegitimate actions of the election demonstrates the ballot box is dead. But the fact that the performance of the supposed alternate party, which does not exist, there is no performance factor, there is no performance level, there is no capability, the Republirat whore is nothing more than the other radio station or television station, Shill, whose job it is to keep everybody busy spinning their wheels. First of all, none of this could have gotten passed with 50-50 on the Senate floor. Go ahead, jump in there, Comer. I get a perfect example of this rhino situation. Out in Utah, there's a guy named Curtis running for the congressman. One of his field operators resigned because he had mentioned out loud that the congressman would not appreciate the Roe versus Wade overturn because Utah is one of those states that has an automatic no abortion thing already in place in the state. They've already taken care of that legal hoop a long time ago for the day when the Roe versus Wade thing got changed in the courts. It turns out the guy said he's so basically he's not pro-life, he's pro-bort, but he can't tell that to the people of Utah. And he would run as a Democrat. But no one would vote for him because the Utah people only vote for Republicans. So he is a Democrat running as a Republican. And the only reason he's running as Republican is not because he agrees with anything, but that's the only way he can get into power. And I think that's the major problem that people in Utah, they're freaking ignorant. They don't know who these people are that they're voting for. Over. Again, again, no again part of the problem there is too is with certain elders telling everybody rather than making field asking people to think It demonstrates it from the upper end of management in the different churches, etc That they're a lot more pro-communist than they want anybody to realize Because it's free. This is like Michigan. Okay, the Michigan's in the same boat to it, you know to a degree but individuals at the local level, local local level, truly can be identified for being an A or B. But as far as the state level, and I think it's pretty much the same with, I don't think, I think there's any difference in any of the states right now. If they're a fake ass republic rat at the state level, they could just as quickly be a demican. And a demican could just as easily waddle over and lie about being a republic rat and they've done it here in Michigan before. Some states are just more vulgar than others. And like you said, in other words, well, nobody's going to vote for the demican. So the republic rat has to lie to get into office, but it also means that everybody else has to shut their brain off. See how that works? And by the way, Mitt Romney's dad was known as Rumdum Romney here in Michigan, because he might as well have been a commune. He might as well have been just... Democrat. That's true, and he was in here. Well, he was actually. So again, the fakery of the game with regard to the nitwit slash rumdum romney out there, the fact that everybody's riding along with that twerp and that he just, or apparently they've already got some kind of fake collection thing going on in Utah. We don't know. I think that the corruption level is just so terrible now that We're going to have to scrub the table clean in order to get this fixed. The election process is ultimately corrupted. There are very few places where it isn't, and even if they aren't, they're still so manipulated to the point where they obviously went along with the fake election the last time around and decided to ride with the lies that were generated locally and at the state level. to the point where, well, I don't see any, I see there's no, it's just like talking about sports with me now. I was thinking about this, you know, quietly people are trying to slide back to sports, which is really stupid, because every aspect of that game, no matter what it is, football, basketball, baseball, they all agreed to hate you. They all agreed, the owners, it doesn't make any difference what the players think. It doesn't make any difference even though the players were the ones flapping there, yeah. They couldn't have done that without the managers, forgive me, the owners winking and nodding at every step of the way to create the problem. So we have a handful of Jewish mafia type slave owners who run sports arenas that are gladiatorial games, and they showed their true colors. They hate you. They hate everything about you. In no way, shape, or form should you in any way. If I have somebody who knows anything about what's going on with sports in front of me right now, I usually kind of just turn my brain off to him because there's absolutely nothing about sports that appeals to me because of the betrayal that's taken place. Before I would casually say, you know what, it's cool, everybody's having fun. But they didn't make it fun, they made it lethal. They virtually told you they hate you, they want to kill you, they'd like to have you all dead. They hate your country, they want to destroy your country. Now the players went along with that the players could have stopped that now how many of the you know the course the BLM types which is a whole bunch of the blacks that are you know the property of the state slash slaves that are football players and basketball players or whatever Hey, big junk were blacks. They like the idea of killing all you white people. So why are you spending money on them? Why are you even paying attention to them? They're they have there's nothing of mutual interest there There is nothing you have in common with them Why would you continue to in any way shape or form, piddle or bother with that crap? Now I'm dead cold serious about this. You want to hurt them? You hurt them in their money. You want to hurt them in their money? Well, how much do they suck from everybody in how many different ways with the gladiatorial games? Time for them to put out of your life. Understand empty. I love it. Yeah, they stayed. Well, again, part of it was the overlap between the coronavirus crap, which you all, of course, went right along with. But that's because they were receiving federal and all kinds of other money step by step. Everybody found those magic government tits that fell from the sky, be it the support BLM, support Antifa or again. the the coronavirus crisis, which by the way, remember you had Fauci that little rut bastard gray space alien because I'm pretty sure he's wearing a human suit. He's just a little gray space alien. That creature is all smirking all by himself. What is there? What kind of joy would you have going to an arena like that and being three people in the stands? You just think about the arrogance and why just for that reason if he was in front He just wanted to beat him to death or put a bullet in his ass That was the ultimate in arrogance and insult when you saw that jackass go to a game and there's all and there's three people There's him and the two twit nitwits that were those two females were sitting with him. Remember that? You go feed him to the wombats Yeah, well, you know, but make sure the wombats have been fed for a while Yeah, but then again, they might get sick on gray space. They win. Anyway, I heard another voice before we further. Yeah, Mark. I was just thinking, uh, I fully expect in the coming elections for there to be a democratic landslide, which will just prove to everybody that the ballot boxes, uh, completely corrupt and not to be good. Pay attention to just ignore it. But I think the only thing is wrong. At least the view out. Well, the big, the big thing here again with that is that we need to be ready. We can't wait until that happens. What we need to do, everybody needs to understand that what they're doing by the Republicans, of course, are the ones who have started to pump this up. And so have the fake media. that, you know, the next election, the next election, well, first of all, what is the date today? It's the 22nd of June, 2022. What happened in the last 15 months of the operation of this country by the buffoons and wicked and evil that have been allowed through the fake election to step up? Now, with every passing month, how much more damage are they doing to the United States? So do you somehow think that the fake election is going to be, you know, fake election coming up is in any way, shape or form, truly going to make that much of a difference, A. But also, in the time it takes to get there, the time factor, time and, you know, time and distance people, time and distance. They, by the time we get there, they will have done so much more significant damage, stolen so much more in the way of digits, brought more illegal aliens across the border, et cetera. Go right down the shopping list. That this is one of the reasons they obviously feel they need to disarm everybody But that's if everybody is thinking they're gonna follow there won't be there's no need to follow any rules. There aren't any rules Asking permission didn't get anybody anywhere and isn't it's gonna continue to be no because that's the whole idea behind Forcing you to ask permission thinking that somehow you're gonna follow the rules. What good did it do? Everybody followed the rules during the two years worth of burn down by Antifa BLM and the US government fully cooperating with the FBI, ATF and the Mossad, coordinating the operation of the attack on America from inside the United States, period. What good did it do you following your rules? If any given point, if the American hand had just reached out and just stomp the guts out of them at any one location, just finish them. I don't care what the yapping kosher mafia and the communist Jewish commissars wanted to front their yap about. After the first one, sky's the limit and ain't nothing slowing it down. After that, well, guess what? The game's on. And the world would not be as it is even right now. In fact, it would have been better off for us. I think the closest example of that, which they realize cause problems is that random attack east of Cincinnati, if you all remember. They picked a community, had nothing to do with anything, figured it was a soft target. They were gonna go out into rural America and they were gonna wag their weenie. To be quite honest, each of those buses should have been burned right to the ground. Anybody trying to get there, I mean, stop them on the highway, get rid of that bunch, and then wipe out the bunch that showed up at the community and just get rid of them. They're not there for entertainment. They were there to try and play communist overlords slash try to piss in your face Well, that's when it's time to get rid of them pressure from below because remember who's gonna support them Oh the comp the cops and the feds so that pressure from that pressure from above to continue to Let a the pressure from below burn your ass down. That means you got two enemies Well, it's not hard to identify them see the ones in uniform. They're your enemies See the other ones that were, you know, burning down the house that the cops didn't do anything about? They're your enemies. It's not hard to figure out. Go ahead, caller, jump in there. It's me. I want to change the subject for a minute, because I have a sore under my saddle. The sore under my saddle is that I'm very sick of, and I don't get very many of them. We may get five, six, maybe seven of them a day, but I get really sick of telemarketing calls. And even though I blocked the number, they use another one, and then they use another one, and then they use another one, then they use another one. So I'm kind of at the position right now where I'm about to, the next time I get a telemarketer call, and I hurry up and I press the button so I can talk to them, and I tell them, remove this number from your calling list and give them the number, and that's all I say. Now they try to get out of it. They try to shut off the phone before you can do this. But there's a little secret here. All these phone companies, if they really wanted to protect the privacy and protect the sanity in a way of their customers so that their customers would get only the telephone calls that they want to, they can actually block these numbers and block this stuff. They don't have to let it through. Even when you do the 9-1, the don't call list, the federal known call, you still can get political calls. And you still can get solicitations for all these different agencies and stuff. You know, these different things like the police and their whatever. And all that stuff. You can get still active calls. You can get polling calls. You can still get those. But when you know that these companies can block these things and can stop them without you paying extra money to eat more or whatever it is or $10 a month or whatever it is. When you do that, it gets really exasperating. That's all I have to say. Anyway, okay. All right. Well, anyway, hold on here. My solution is, if I don't recognize a number, I don't answer it. Right. Well, I think the biggest problem here again is remember the reason they're doing this and they're not gonna stop doing it is for the same reason as we found out, gee, depending on where you carry your cell phone for the right amount of money, anybody can buy your location for the last three months. The telephone, what we call the cell phone, the biggest problem we've got is the idea that the cell phone is not a phone. It is a radio transceiver and all of the contracts and constructs and all of the legislation and everything that's been passed since 1918 with the copper wire rack doesn't apply to the cell phone. Mark, and that's the problem. That's the problem with this is again, they want to sell it to people. They are, in fact, they're getting more desperate because remember, like I've said, all these companies don't maintain themselves. They want to produce a specific amount of profit or luker through theft. In other words, yeah, we got $4 million coming in for maintenance. $3 million is stole by Izzy Blatz and Steen is in, in Haifa right now in a big bank account. Otherwise that other million, well, we'll do some maintenance or do some fixing or maybe operations, but we need more, we need more luker. So what they've done is they're still selling on the slide. or selling access, not just selling lists, selling access to our, you know, the cell phone networks. And also the internet. Go ahead. I'm talking about landlines. I'm talking about wired landlines. Oh, well, that's- And they can stop this. Utility companies, all the telephone companies, it wouldn't cost them hardly anything to do this. Because they can trace calls. We know they trace calls. We know they keep them from. And they report it to the government. I just had another call from a utility company. And I talked to one of these one-on-one time. And I told them, I said, well, we don't have any utility bills. Oh, you have to. So now we don't. Well, you have to. You can't possibly not have a utility bill. I can too. Well then how are you talking to me on the phone? I said, well it comes through the telephone wires. Well you can't possibly. I mean she didn't believe me that we don't have the utility bill. She didn't believe that. I couldn't convince her that we do not have electric or gas bills. And we don't. But, you know, and she stood there and she really could not comprehend any of that stuff. So even when you're telling them the truth, they still don't understand, you know. They don't get it. And may or may not be an American to begin with. Remember, the script they've been given isn't necessarily going to match with the reality of somebody that they're talking to. The other thing is, even with the physical lines, The other problem is, again, they're not really enforcing the rules the way that they should and they're still in pain. Who bought it? They're just letting them like everything else. There's no rules. I think, personally, our biggest problem wrapping our brain around this is that we are at the point where what used to be the gold standard of America has been sold out. There is no standard. And because of that, Well, first of all, are you willing to continue to pay taxes? Are you willing to let them continue to steal from your bank account? Are you willing to continue to let them run over the border with a couple million illegal aliens this year? Well, if America keeps doing that, why worry about them? Seriously, think about it. For the little clique of Yomikal wearing turds that are the most corrupt bastards on the planet, they have nothing to fear from their spit-swapping ring-knock and butt-buddies. I think that's where our problem is. Until, again, they don't, until they fear us again, and that needs to happen, then nothing is going to be put in check, nor is anything to be done right. There's nothing, I, Phil, I don't see anything, and I'm not, I'm a very positive person, but I'm positive of the fact that the corruption is at a level that is, so ultimately destructive that again people are not going to realize you and I we're all talking about it but most people are talking themselves into thinking that things are just going on as they always have to a degree some things are but not with the performance level it's like the cell phones or whatever even the ground line phones the quality of the product is in the toilet the the cost of it continues to accelerate The level of graft and corruption to steal from the resource inventory of digits because they're so used to stealing. I don't care if it's government. I don't care if it's elected officials, government bureaucracy, private corporation, or even local government and state government. Local and state government started to feel the munch. In other words, they enjoyed playing steal the tax dollar. When everything went from you don't want we get paid a token fee for being here at the township to you make $24,000 a year off the taxpayer that you get to take home as if you had a job and you don't have a job. You're in an elected office where you're part part part time and you're making 30,000 32,000 26,000 the lowest end is 24. I've followed what I've seen I think it's actually that numbers obsolete. I think it's closer into the 30s now So you're you know, these people used to be non-pay jobs and once that kind of corruption was fed upon It just bled through the whole system even our state governments. Go ahead. Go ahead. You want to talk good you well work Sorry. Even our, they make work for themselves because if you really start looking at this, they have an agenda in all these counties and all these states and everything. What they've done is they've divided every single state up into regions in their districts. And so like we live in the West Gate District or West Gate, I think it's the West Gate District. This is under a general framework. So what they do is they have nobody, like you and I, we don't, we can go in and we can elect these guys that are sitting on the board. But there is a bigger agenda that actually has been put into place by this committee. For Pennsylvania, for the Crawford County, it's called the Crawford County, no, French Creek Council of Governors, that's what it's called. And each one of our regions, each one of our states has this thing. They're getting paid for this. They have this. This is like a separate government that we do not elect, we do not have any control over or anything. And what they do is they implement Agenda 21, they do a comprehensive plan, and then that comprehensive plan goes to every single one of these counties, everything single on these townships. And then these townships are supposed to start implementing these and putting them in place. That's how we got HOA's, that's how we got all these other things that are imposed upon us. That's how we got these places where we have corridor districts now. We lived in a corridor, a certain corridor, and we weren't allowed to have chickens and ducks and everything. But then if you go two miles down the road, two miles down the road, into CrossFit County, and into town, you can have a new world order. His clothes were torn and dirty as he stood there by my bed. He took off his three cornered hat and speaking low to me he said, we fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations this legacy we gave. In this the land and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you we hoped you'd always keep. The tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost. You're no more than a slave. In this, the land of the free and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent. Your children must attend a school that doesn't educate and your Christian values can't be taught According to the state you read about the current news in a regulated press and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold you trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame You've taken Satan's number. You've traded in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seed himly farm and keep our country deep and dead. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors so their children won't be born. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you'll fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? Both sons of the Republic arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land, preserve our great Republic and each God given right, and pray to God to keep the torch of freedom burning bright. As I awoke, he'd vanished in the mist from whence he came. His words were true, we are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trampled each God-given right we only watch him tremble too afraid to stand and fight If he stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep What would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Dilled the land of the training and you will come back alive Ladies and gentlemen, this is the Forgive me, second hour, I was gonna say first hour. Oh, God. We've already been through an hour. Second hour of the Intelligence Report, I'm Mark Harnke. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters. Both on and behind the lines in occupied territories, southwest, northeast, north, and east. Ladies and gentlemen, you are listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com, libertytreeradio.org. We're on satellite and we are on a myriad of other communications technologies, both inside and outside these United States. It is Weapons Wednesday. It is the 22nd of June, 14th year of open obvious, pissing in your face, Fabian the socialist. and pissing in your face Soviet Socialist occupation of America with the K 2022 old earth calendar 2022 battle for the Republic the dance of swords and we need the dance to continue just gonna happen it's not an if just it's not even it's not iffy anything about this it's just a matter of how quickly it escalates and remember the idea is your enemy is supposed to catch you off guard We're just not going to suspect all the wicked things that we've seen our enemy do through experience in the past. We're just totally confused. We're just just not going to know. Yeah, and I'm a Chinese jet pilot named Lozi. Everybody pretty well. In fact, you know what's funny is all the distractions that are desperate have done no good and in fact have died out or pitered out far faster than obviously it was wanted. Of course, if it was the purpose, one of the many purposes was to milk money from the United States digits as much as they can to create fictional wealth on the part of characters who then come in and buy material physical wealth, which is the property of these United States. The pigs have always done the same thing. The Jewish bankers, the Shaster bankers, have always done the same thing with the Federal Reserve and with the globalists in general, which is why the Federal Reserve did not exist in this country, nor did any Rothschild-type bank in the operational levels that we now see, which was a big yuck and schmuck and ha-ha for all of the Oibos when they pushed it back in 1913. Okay? And the rest is history, as they say. So, it doesn't mean that they've had their way every step of the way. They haven't. The people are still not selling their souls. But there's a bunch of idiots, it always will. That's not, that shouldn't frustrate you. That just, like I've said, you need to know who these people are. You have these idiots who are like going along with this dog vomit right now. Oh yeah, this is just what needs to happen. Of course, they don't care, nor do they look beyond the end of their nose, about how this is going to affect both their personal lives, the lives of all the people around them, and the quality of the country itself, the quality and standards of our republic. So, needless to say, thesis, antithesis, synthesis, nobody's addressing the problem that the psychotropic drugs and the billions of dollars they're going to give to drug co. What are they going to do with the schools? They're going to give them money, so they're going to give them bounty. Here's what they'll probably do right from the get-go. In fact, if you dig into this, you'll find when you go through the $20 billion that's going to go to the public fool system, it's going to be to dope up more of your boys on Ritalin. more boys on Ritalin blow more brains out with Ritalin. Why? Because they'll expand on the bounty program. The schools get thousands of dollars to blow your kids brains out at the behest of the feds. That's what the whole Ritalin program was originally about in the 60s. When they did the pilot program that failed, they brought it back again in the 80s and it's continued ever since. your children, if you were stupid enough to let them have your kids, well, I mean, after all, you got their kids letting your kids pedo, you get pedoed now or your grandkids, don't tell me how you're all that concerned about your kids. But as far as the rank and file out there, it's like, well, yeah, well, look what they're doing. Well, everybody told you about that, but they were all the patriots and the people who are Americans and you didn't wanna listen to them. Now it's become a drama issue because Well, it was okay when they were doing the neighbor's kids, but now all of your kids need to become queer. All of your kids need to become deranged. All of them need to be groomed by the queers that make up the school system, which we warned you about for how long? And while they're not doing third graders, they're not doing kindergartners and first and second graders, but maybe they are doing third graders. So, oh, so they got to wait a little bit, but then they'll amend it because after they wait long enough and all your kids are pedoed from third grade and beyond. Well, then the next batch coming up will figure, well, why are you not letting them pedo the kids in second and first grade and kindergarten? And why aren't you letting the purple haired queers pedo your kids in preschool? Because that's where the queers really need to be so that they can pedo and grow up and have their way with your children that because if you let this go the way it is what's the next logical liberal step after a half a bucket of poison the whole bucket is served the other half of the bucket which makes a whole bucket go ahead fellowship in there speaking of homosexuality and goofy stuff this I heard about an issue where there were two parents were their parents And then when the child was 13 years old, the child was allowed because the church, the parents, the doctor tells the child what they are. They're a boy or girl. So the child can decide what it is when it's 13 years old. These parents did that. And so the child decided it was a girl. She was born a girl, but she decided she wanted to be a boy. So they get on Facebook and they say, our daughter has made this wonderful decision that she wants to be a boy. So she's a boy now. So instead of her name being whatever it was, it's now a boy's name. And this is happening. Yeah. This is a child. Children are coming home and telling their parents, well, they don't believe in this or whatever. Whatever it is, it's probably, it's like a mundane issue that has nothing to do with homosexuality at all. So they tell them that they're homophobic. What? So these children, they're children, they're in school, night mark, they're in school, they're children, and they are coming home and informing their parents that they are homophobic. And I'm sure they weren't taught that at home, so there you go. No, in fact, again, there's only so many people you've got to shoot and you've gotten rid of the problem, and to be quite honest, the one case that's out west, and I wonder how states say this because, again, Can you people go in and talk about the Bill of Rights? Are you able to go into your public pool system there and have a day with the kids where you get to talk about the Bill of Rights and Article 1 and Article 2 and the right to personally defend yourself and free speech, etc. Are you allowed to talk about it? No, I would say no. And if you're a religious person and you're part of a youth group, if that's your children, the children that are in your youth group, go to that school, you're not permitted to go in there either. So, you know. So, yeah. You're not allowed to do anything, no. But you're not going to go in there and talk about any of the amendments to the Constitution. And if you do, you're going to be ridiculed. And if you do stand up in front of the school board and you mention anything that's not on their agenda, then they can have you arrested in some areas. Oh, they've got it. They've done that for years. That's why you wait till they come out later on when they're stepping out of the car when they're back somewhere and wherever they're going to a parking lot. That's when you just beat the living shit out of them. Oh, I'm sorry. That's just you know, I'm just I'm just randomly thinking about where where are we right now? What's what's there left to discuss? You know, I mean, seriously, we have to but you know For years the the idea is that you're supposed to shut up because you have this committee of monkeys individuals who are not smarter than you are and typically are a few size IQs, but because they're all fellow travelers rubbing each other's hind end, this little click of sycophants has gone farther and farther into whatever twisted extreme because they've got to outdo the last batch to show how radical and extreme that they are. So like I said, it's, so how far do you let this go? A lot of people are having an extensive conversation in Patriot circles about Did the founding fathers perceive or foresee the possibility of the perverts going in this direction? And actually, yes, they did. There's a lot of writings on this subject. You're not gonna be taught in the public fool system because, oh, those are those are crazy people that, yeah, freed the slaves, so to speak, and many other, and changed or completely juxtapositioned the whole idea of property of the state versus being a free person. But one of the fascinating things about this is you have to, as we said, have some kind of moral, you know, moral standard, some kind of mechanism in place, and there isn't one right now. We're, it's not that we're adrift. We've allowed ourselves, we've allowed the cackling in insane morons to grab axes and cut the lines or the, you know, the steerage lines for the rudder. It's time to get rid of the cackling maniacs. It's time to get rid of all of the cackling maniacs. We have idiots even you know, it's funny because we have you know, yeah, well, you know, Yellen, whatever the twitch name is in Jewish female That was you know, well, we didn't know that this was gonna cause you know recession or you know, this would cause inflation really Okay, well that's a lie, but what's funny is that if it isn't a lie, there's a problem I've had with this all along. It's either, hey, you're wicked and evil, or you're stupid and still wicked. And there is stupid and wicked, okay? And that's what you're dealing with. Does it make any difference which it is? You don't let stupid and wicked get hold of the steering wheel. You don't let evil and wicked get hold of the steering wheel. And in this case, like I've said, shoe size IQ, but still a raving fruit loop from the tribe. Okay, and that's exactly what they claim they are. Well, if they are, first of all, their ass should be arrested, and they should be having light and air pumped to them from a very deep dark cell, to a very deep dark cell. Go ahead, jump in there. One of the examples, I went into our store and they have a little sign that they need money. They need coins. They need change. I said, oh, they're starting this thing with the Federal Reserve again. I said, oh. I said, well, you know what? Money is coins. They're actually made by the Treasury Department. So we have those, and that's real money, where when you have this paper stuff, when it collapses, these coins are going to be worth a lot more. Just a regular coin, you know, a quarter or whatever. It's going to be worth more. And the woman just stood there behind the counter and said, the Federal Reserve isn't really so federal. She had no clue. She just stood there and smiled. She had no idea it was like I was talking to a dead person. So. Well, again, one of the things about that is when they start doing that convention, well, you need to tell your bank to make sure that you've got more change. And the bank tells the Federal Reserve to deliver more coin. And all you have to do is put in an order. In fact, they really can't refuse that, guys. They want to right now. The only problem is whether or not the banks at the high management level are cooperating with the lie. The coin is there. In fact, let's put it this way. The coin was already known last year. What coin was gonna be struck this year? Okay, it's that simple. And again, the interesting thing about this is they've never fully pulled the coin reserve off the shelf ever. There is never a time where all of the coin reserve that was struck for say a three to five reactors, what is it, a three, five and 10 year cycle. There's never been a time where they've stripped the shelves bare ever. So it's a complete lie. Not only that, but here's the thing, start asking for dollar coins. That really does mess with their head. On the one hand, they produce dollar coins, but I will remind you that we've successfully used that as a weapon to demonstrate just how influential your dollars are in a community. Down here in the three-state area, Indiana, Ohio, and Michigan, we had three different towns. Pro patriot one was in Ohio one was in the bottom of Michigan south of Hillsdale And the other one was in the corner of Indiana. I'm not a very big but everybody that had been going to all of the Justice pro se and pro patriot and you know Safe America and all the other programs all got together and they all in there those respective communities They all agreed to spend one dollar coins and at that time it was a Susan B Anthony that was most common. Okay And what was fascinating is it only took a week and a half and the banks were told not to give out any more dollar, not to ask for any dollar coins from the Fed. Now remember, the Fed, it's not because they were short, it's because they were actually using them. See, on the one hand, you've got propaganda, you know, hey, use the dollar coin, this, that, and the other. But what it proved is that, okay, there's 200 of you or 300 of you in a community of maybe, oh, 4,000, 5,000, maybe 6,000. But when you go to the grocery store, you're paying dollar coins. When you go to the gas station, you're paying dollar coins. When you go to the hardware, you're paying dollar coins. Very quickly, the cash registers were all filling up with, but they also were using the dollar coins the way the Fed said they wanted. But the problem is, is that there wasn't any retiring of the currency. Plus, it was starting to make people appreciate currency, the true value issue. And then you had to remind everybody, well, that's not a silver coin, but imagine how much silver would be moving right now if every one of those dollars were a silver dollar. What they did is they actually claimed that they then were, they could refuse the dollar coins. Now, why would you want to refuse money? And by the way, we know, because we talked to the bankers, and the bankers said, hey, that's the Fed and the government in Washington that told us that we need to back off on allowing you guys to use these dollar coins, because it's getting the words getting out. So this would be a fun tool, and there's lots of dollar coins out there. And it's one of those things you can do in a community to kind of show the effect of your currency in motion. And how much of, and by the way also, how much of an effect just two or 300 people can have on a small area. 5,000 people is in a really big town, it's not a small town. You know, that's including the outlying areas and you know, they don't have suburbs with a small down on the map, but it incorporated the farmers and everything else in the area. And a lot of the farmers, everybody picked up on it. A lot of people picked up and asked for more dollar coins from the bank. And the bank, of course, just kept providing them for the first three. But by the time they got to the third week, that's when the Fed wanted to put the brakes on it because the word was getting out and other parts of the state, Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana, it was bleeding out from there because these dollar coins were being spent farther and farther away. And so hard currency dollar coins were enveloping their money market, which also shows you it's not feudal to resist. You guys are having an effect. This is something you can do. See, I don't have a problem with supporting it because it doesn't cost you anything. It's one of those things where, yeah, hell yes, let's have some fun. Let's put a stick in the spokes and see what happens. You don't have to do anything other than what you're already doing, which is what? Spending money. Okay, that's all there is to it. You're going to be spending money, so why not use it as a tool for the Patriot effort? Guys, these are just things to show that you have numbers. They don't want people to see that you're not alone. Go ahead, caller, jump in there. You brought up the subject, silver dollar. Think about how much... And I don't know off the top of my head, but at 90% coin silver in that silver dollar, that was a dollar's worth of silver. Today, you get, what was the smallest, I think we did a three cent silver piece back in the 1860s or the 1850s. That's the smallest silver coin there ever was, I mean, for our nation. If I'm wrong, I'm wrong, but I mean, by and large, the exception proves the rule. A dime right now. 15 and a half dimes equals a dollar as far as the silver content. So $15 worth of face coin equals what would have been, you know, an ounce of silver or a dollar's worth. If we went to a silver standard, two things. One, does going to the silver standard revert our price back to more of a traditional value for the coin for the you know for the bullion itself and If we make smaller, I mean how much smaller than a dime could you go and still have it be an effective piece of coinage? Because I know I saved up a bootload of silver dimes and silver quarters and you know, that's That's real money. I've got some dollars, but you know, they're not as easily found More as easily purchased cheap Well, okay, first of all, real quick, what would happen if an American system were actually reestablished? The set values would all be readjusted, the term would be back, but in reality would be returned to a common sense level. We have allowed with no Jubilee, with no holiday, with no correction, we have allowed the insanity of the Shyster banker to take these numbers to the insane levels, oh, slowly, but to the insane levels where they are now. Consider this, okay, up until the Federal Reserve. Who set the value on an ounce of silver and an ounce of gold? Congress. It's the only real monetary thing that says Congress shall set the value of gold and silver tender. Well, shall we? And shall set the value thereof. Right, and that's what weights and measures, part of the weights and measures responsibility of the Congress. Guys, for more than 100 plus years, the price of gold based on American currency was flat and stable. The same was true with silver. And for that matter, copper. All considered to be, again, precious or semi-precious metals that reflect a specific value and standard in trade. But the trade standard was not manipulated by foreign market or activity. The dollar exchange rate which created the stability necessary to operate, whoa, the limited constitutional republic was based upon our constitutional standards. the contract that we were in and are still in. And by the way, they while a handful of traders abrogated what was an excellent mechanism to keep in check the price issues, which by the way, there would still be depressions or cycles of not there is no such word as recession, but cycles of adjustment. Now, up until the point where they decided to throw out the idea of a Jubilee adjustment, or at least a stabilization, a flat line. We now have these insane numbers that make no sense. This always happens when you let the Yehudi trash, when you let the kosher banker have their way with an insane formula. It just simply cannot continue. Which is why they're trying to figure out how to A, invade the country so they can flush the country with aggressors. That way you'll have physical aggressors on the ground competing against you for what was the original contract. And by the way, the contract we're now fighting over is under the War Powers Act and under the New Deal Act and under the, oh, let's see, what was it, the Johnson era? You know, slash read that Rockefeller communization of America. even with these contracts which had to have their toes dipped in the old original contract, each one progressively perverted more and more all of the words of the founding documents. And the contract mechanism that presently the Social Security scam, guys, if two million people have come across the border, Those 2 million people never paid in their lives, never will. They're not going to because they're on the dole. They're sucking off. Many of them are intentionally coming across knowing that they're almost going to retire per se as quickly as they hit the beach. And they're sucking off a social security system that in no way, shape or form they put a thin dime into or a digit. But what that is, they're doing to you now, as they've done since the Federal Reserve Act attacked America, where we had United States notes, and we had Federal Reserve notebook paper. And the Federal Reserve cookbook paper is what stole the hard currency from the American people. They should have been shot then. The bastards should have been shot then. There are opportune situations. The War Powers Act of 1933 should have started American War for Independence then. And they should have had their ass shot. Of course, some people did actually try to mobilize that. And they were betrayed because after all the commies had a plan for America, FDR, the commie, and the Jewish mob that was running him had a plan. Of course they did, they created the problem in 29. Now we're down the road and this Ponzi scam that they created Two things happen Roe versus Wade which by the way has to do with okay Let me ask everybody usually know the number how many Americans have been have been self-executed by their their own parents in the last 50 years with Roe versus Wade actually forgive me 43 million 60 so there's So there are 63 million contractors that were targeted by the OI boys through internal self suicide that ceased to exist as part of the what was the original argued math formula for the construct of the social security system. If 60 million people ceased to exist that were supposed to go into the work they would have been born. They would have had a straw man contract, they would have had a straw man paper on them, okay. They would have had all the garbage attached. They would have been in the system. They would have then paid into the income tax. They would have paid into the, again, the Social Security system. But they were systematically executed. So those replacements, which were the digital numbers that needed to be there based upon the contract. were exterminated by other members of the contract through their stupidity. Their college education killed them. Their high school teachers killed them. Even many ministers helped to kill them. The social agenda scam murdered them. See, we're not talking about, well, you could have had children be dead. No, no, we're talking about people who actually were through the well of souls, whatever you want to talk about. A man and woman came together, created a third party. The third party now is in existence. They were systematically told that they could exterminate that third party with reckless abandon. Some of them went real, real, real Twilight Zone crazy when it came to the suicide like that. And how old they're proud they don't even tell I had five I had six well again This is also reflected in men how the the female population that looks upon itself We now have we have dikes we have Let's see women are gonna get in there and be warriors which by the way, they're at birthing age So don't worry. Don't even not have to have an abortion if you can kill off or reroute the female population, then you've boosted on top of what are the extermination numbers, 62 million. How many more are lost in the void? So there's a tremendous plan here because stupid people through the public fool system have listened to strangers who do not have their best interest in heart in any way, shape, or form, but instead have a wicked soul, a corrupted soul. Typically, they're also possessed in some way by whatever wickedness, whatever agenda, as in perhaps a third party. Who knows? And really, at this point, it's just obvious that you're at war. and very little of anything, there's nothing on the horizon other than American War for Independence that's going to fix this. But look what they've done. Now we've got this contract. You paid how many? I know that I actually, you know what I've got every once in a while you get from the social security, you get the number of components that you've paid in. You know that I paid in By my middle age, I paid the equivalent to two full individuals in Social Security and in taxes. Because any given time I had two full-time jobs. Okay? And I have twice the number necessary. I am right now with the numbers that I just saw. They've already eradicated part of that by stealing it sideways and rewriting the formula, which by the way, when I signed into the contract, what I didn't know is it was fluid and I can steal out the back door of the big faith that they filled up with all of our digits, whatever we paid in. And where did that money go? Well, they're doing this intentionally because for every dollar they give to these illegal aliens, I guarantee there's seven on the cooked books that is in hyphen Tel Aviv right now. They're doing with the Social Security scam and have been for more than a few decades now exactly what they did with the Federal Reserve scam with regard to stealing the value of the country sideways by cooking the books. They are cooking the books again. But before it was, it actually had to have paper currency printed. We're already at the point where it's digital elements that they have stolen which are far easier to steal because there's no physical process. Remember, when the first part of this scam started in 1913, they had to still live in the world of the physical. And so there were United States notes, there were Treasury notes, there were, oh, Federal Reserve notes. Now, the others were deposit slips, but the Federal Reserve note was a theft slip, a cook the book's paper, you know, paid piece of paper. And they could bring that in with nothing backing it. Foreigners could demand a dollar's worth of silver for that dollar paper from the Federal Reserve. Now, you and I couldn't do that. But the little spit swapping ring knocking, yamaka wearing butt buddies, they could through the banking system. And so they slid sideways, the physical, stable wealth of the United States. The next step is to create Ponzi scams like what we see now. Cook the books with different numbers, including this alien wave of people with an inane number of other government projects that are totally illegitimate but run by an unelected bureaucracy whose job it is to steal as much from the coffers of the people who have worked their ass off and built this country all of their lives. Right now, by the way, there'll be another. Here's the thing, all these purple-haired idiot sticks, they're gonna be paying flat out with just being slaves of the state, but they're so damn stupid. They won't care even as they're harvested for kidneys or harvested for body parts. It's gonna be a whole lot easier for the royalty to walk in or wade in and just put a club to the head of any of these idiot sticks and take whatever they want. Because the dimpleheads and dimwets have been conditioned by the people that were told to get into these key positions and betray you, like the school teachers, like even the medical people now. And again, the unelected bureaucracy which needs to be gone. It has gone to exactly where the especially the anti-federalists said it would go. And the anti-federalists were written, all the anti-federalist papers were written the same time as the Federalist papers. It's just they didn't want anybody to see the anti-federalist work, although it was originally printed, but then it was made to disappear because, well, they were perpetrating what the anti-federalists said would happen. The biggest issue here is that we need to, we're at the point where we have to get rid of them. There are any other kind, and again, first of all, you need to start calling from your circles those people who think, well, this is really good, oh yeah, the red flag laws. Anybody who is right now believing in red flag law, It has nothing to do with the Second Amendment. It has everything to do with all the rest of the elements of the Articles of the Bill of Rights that are the foundation of everything, period. And the fact that you have a fool who is so stupid that they have not thought this through, and that person is not listening, that person is not your friend. If it's a family member, exclude them. If it's a person that you've known, exclude them. It's time for them to, you just don't invite them. Don't talk to them. You have to start this separation. It has to be across the board. There is nothing that's going to fix them. They will betray you. They will be the ones that after they, I had to call the cops because they said that the new thought police order is that if you don't like the red flag laws that I could call the police to help you. You see how that works? Yeah, help the call the police so the commie commissar can come and the homeland security the foreigners and all the rest. Yeah Yeah So right now like what he said in guns and gadgets and going back to what Jared was saying those ones that are saying oh, yeah, this is good It doesn't have to do anything to do with a second and all these asshat Republicans they were told by their stinking lodge buddies and also by their blackmailers and This list are all the turds that have already been over to Israel. They probably had a couple of eight year old boys or eight year old girls, maybe even a baby to rape and to murder or whatever, or to lust over, you know, whatever perversion. Think of the Hunter Biden laptop and apply the name. Just think, look at the Hunter Biden laptop information. See all these names. Attached them and by the way Mitt Romney, I really do believe he is queers a $3 bill I think he is one of the he's a see I'm gonna tell you why it's the eyes in the face The way he bugs. Okay. Yeah, I've been around the queer population Because it's all around us in the Ann Arbor area to the point where guys you had better gauge the wind where you're standing I'm gonna tell you right now. There's a bunch of madam shift. Ain't no doubt. He is a pedal queer The only difference is it bleeds out into the public arena with the way he looks. But like Romney, Rum Dum Romy, all of these characters that are on this list, they're all spit swapping, ring knocking slash A. They were told because they're up in the upper order but still petal queers. Still perverts, okay? Take your pick of whatever kind of pervert. It doesn't make any difference. And or they've been caught up. either A were the ones that are fellow travelers or they got caught up. It constitutes 24% of the Republicans rats plus in the 24% plus. I come back to worry about the point dot dot whatever. It's just again, that's an example of well, you're at the finish point. And no matter what they say about, well, it's not a red flag law, but it is a red flag, no, bullshit. The fact that they've used the verbiage means that, and if they fuzzied it or fogged it up, it's so that they can air towards being more oppressive. Do you think that they're gonna air towards not doing anything? My ass. What is the first rule of all these B-Witch bureaucracies, cop shops, and government agencies and bureaucracy? If they can perceive the idea that, well, we interpret that, then what they will do is they will go ahead and murder people in their homes. Burn houses down, burn churches with women and kids in them, murder people with reckless abandon. You know, kill a couple in their home in Houston because they're in the wrong place, but dirty cops and oh, even the other cops all went along with it because they'll go along with the what? Well, what's the key word here? M-O-N-E-Y. What was the first thing they threw out there? Shekels. What'll that do? Well, it'll buy a whole bunch of whores. Money'll buy whores. There's a bunch of whores out there in uniform. Bunch of whores out there in suits. And as soon as they saw that digit, that number coming down the road, oh, they're frothing. Their eyes are fixated, dude. They're like, it's like a, a pedo queer. with one of those cross-dressing little seven-year-olds that has Barnacle Bill the Sailor's mouth, even with people standing there in broad daylight, they just lose all sense of any restraint and they're just on it. All these parasites in your government, well, it's not our government anymore, as soon as they see those numbers, they're behind this 100%. Mark, they're hoarded. There's some things a prostitute won't do. But these creatures, There's nothing they want out. Exactly. Real quick, again, it is Weapons Wednesday. We got about 15 minutes here. Again, it's not a dead horse. It's very much an alive creature. It's in front of us. It's a demon. Okay, whatever it is, we're facing the enemy and you're getting a chance to get that keyhole vision Alexander Solzhenitsyn told you about. You don't want to go any farther. It's time to stop it. It's time to stop this. It's time to stop this. Only in American warfare independence will fix it. But, okay, however that starts, we'll just, we'll watch and see, and we'll participate, don't worry. Real quick, somebody was asking me about, you know, I won't say anything more, I appreciate the emails on the AR-10 idea, you know, like, hey, well, what should we do with the, what should we invest in? Okay, number one. For right now, if you're going to do an AR-10, at least 23 magazines. At least 23 magazines. You know, I've always told you that, but I'll say it again. Right now, we should be clearing out the AR-10 magazine market. But I would also recommend, if you go over to Bear Creek Arsenal, they have a number of different, they do have 6.5 Creedmoor. They do have a bunch of other calibers. And 6.5 Creedmoor, guys, was on everybody's lips. until this 6.8 government yap came about, okay? Now the Creedmoor is a very viable round. It's very much still in service. It's out there. There's quite a few of you guys that have it. So I'm not poo-pooing that round at all. But very, very important here is right now, get a 7.62x51 NATO AR-10. Ideally, try to lighten it up wherever you can because, again, it's a bigger rifle. But It has the same recoil characteristics as the AR-15. The reason I'm promoting this idea at this point is because we need to have all of you ahead of the curve for the 6.8 government cartridge wave. It's coming. Now, it doesn't mean it's going to stay. But here's the nice thing about the AR-15. You're not out anything if you invest in a 7.62x51 NATO AR-15. And B, remember if you do, all we do is pop two pins and you lay that very pretty AR-15, I forget the AR-10, upper receiver with everything you need on it, optics, whatever, leave it all together. And you go build yourself a 6.8 government upper receiver that goes ping-ping right on. And you're pow, pow, pow, pow, pow, pow, pow, pow, shooting the other caliber without any hesitation or waiting and you only had to buy half the rifle, okay? Now that's especially critical, that's especially critical in light of the money issues and all the other stuff that we are talking about here with the economy. So the AR-15 for most of you is the solution. I know there's some very fine rifles. In fact, I've argued for the PTR-91 forever because it was a perfect niche. We've lived off 30 years of surplus inventory for the PTR-91, not the least of which is magazines, but also lesser parts. That is a that's been a benefit. We have put as many HK 91 slash G3 rifles into service as the original military that carried it the Germans There are just as many available and we're building them here in the United States now I don't know what PTR is doing right now, but almost every time they build a wave they sell out The big thing is there still surplus mags out there However, the PTR, now, PTR 91, I wouldn't be surprised if the guy who owns the company doesn't make a 6.8 PTR 91, why not? That rifle could easily be built in and in fact would use the standard NATO magazine that presently is in service. I don't see why there'd be any reason not to. So you're looking at the new, you know, 6.8 Gov round in a PTR 91. If I were the guy who owned the company, I'd already been doing research on that. I'd be doing R&D right now. I don't know what they're doing, but that doesn't mean it couldn't happen. It's just all that is for that rifle is a barrel change. Proper specs for the extractor and the ejector and a barrel change. Everything else, it stays just the way it is. After all, it's 6.8 by 51 NATO. Okay. However, the AR-10 is more readily available as a solution. It is American made also right now and still has made good quantity. So all of you out there, especially with the app you're seeing with this garbage about, no matter what you do, you're gonna be, no matter what we do, it's all gonna be a crime. I've brought this up, you're gonna know you're at the end when everything, no matter what happens, is a crime, so who cares? You're at the point where that'll start the war or that'll start the war or that'll start the war and just know who to put a bullet in Know who to shoot everybody out there. I've just got had the conversation where they all know who needs to be shot now And we know who you can't trust if you see anybody with a face bra running around, you know They're lame as the day is long and so you also know what little communities are totally cucked on that You know, or just total idiot sticks and so you don't invest or spend money there if you can help it Yeah, that works. In fact, everybody up here, you want to really help the effort? Don't spend money unless you absolutely have to in any place where a face bra mandate is still being pushed. That's enemy territory. Why would you spend a dollar there if you can help it? Don't buy gas there. Don't do anything there. In the core, especially the heart of darkness. You mean the peripheral area, but remember those bedroom communities are now just enemy territory too. It purely is a matter still though the good thing of being able to see the face bra. If you see the face bra, you know you got a lame in front of ya. Treat them like the absolute most untrustable creature on the planet because their religiosity is obviously demonstrated and it's lune time there. You're in lune zone with those fools, okay? So, with the AR, again, if you go to BearCreekArsecle.com, there are a number of uppers available. I recommend a 20 or 18 inch barrel first at 20s if they have them. It's purely a matter of how much money can you spend and you have to save money to get the gun complete. I understand that. AR-10, 80% lowers are available, including Polymer. They've been available for a long time. But if you're just gonna go commercial and go whatever FFL, that's fine. Personal flavor choice. If you don't feel confident about working the machinery, don't. Go out and get yourself. In fact, here's the thing. Go out and find grandpa or grandmish midlap or whatever. If you got an uncle, an aunt, a grandpa, a grandma, or a mom and dad who have a terminal illness. The best thing that they can do to help the cause, and are they ardent patriots? Are they pro-gun? Sit down and have a conversation with them. And they already know that they're not feeling good. And they already know that what they're, they may believe they gotta keep a date with death, okay? Which they shouldn't. They should try to live as long as they can. But some people kind of like when the doctor gives them an order, they follow it right to their death bed, okay? Try not to do that. But guess what? That grandpa, that grandma, that aunt, that uncle, they need to start buying guns. In fact, that's the best thing that they could do right now is buy guns. And maybe if you need a bunch of AR-15 uppers or lowers, or if you need an AR-10 upper or lower, if your aunt hates the regime, knows that they're a traitor, et cetera, just tell her, don't say anything to anybody, but you know what? You got a lot of money. If you go and buy those AR-10 or AR-15 lower receivers that are on an FFL, well, nobody can be able to talk to anybody about where they went. Well, Grandpa, you want to help the cause? Best thing you could do right now. Mom, dad, you know that you're ill to the point where you're not going to be with us for much longer, but you can hang in there for a bit. One of the things you can do is well, it's kind of get give a gift that's gonna keep on giving with regard to freedom and liberty And it should be as many as possible as quickly as possible Till such time as you leave this mortal coil You'd be helping us all and we will do honor and remember you We're remembering anyway, but I'll tell you what would help to know when we put a rifle to our shoulder that grandma Smith When I pull the trigger, do full well, I was gonna be using this rifle to protect our freedom and liberty and fight the war for independence. It's one of the best things you could do right now to help our fight, help our cause. That's one of the things. Now, again, you're gonna build an AR, go and give me just a second, AR-10, remember Bear Creek Arsenal, also CDNN Sports has a massive amount of the AR-10 Bushmaster Inventory. So parts there are available, go ahead and call the trip in there. Just a couple of things real quick. As far as AR10s go, I've had really good success with aero precision. They sell out quick on the website, but if you don't mind shipping to an FFL, arrow precision actually has limbs from time to time for lowers or for complete AR-10 lowers. And so I found some good prices there. And then also on a different subject, there was a thing that was on social media today that just shows how ludicrous things are becoming. It was this propaganda piece that was saying how that a pound of grasshoppers is three times as nutritious as a pound of beef. And it's like, you know, when they get to this point, they really are wanting us to eat bugs. It's just absolutely insane. That's all I had to say. Absolutely right. But what the fact that they put that out there like that, who put that out there, do you think? And remember, the one that's telling you that you need to eat grasshoppers, they're still going to be eating that pound of beef while they've got you eating the bugs. You do understand that, right? And they'd be laughing about it. How is it that in 1955 we could feed the world five times over with smaller machines, with lesser equipment, but with more focused, well, we know what it is, more focused and intelligent individuals running the machine? Just the United States. We there's very little that we had to import although we did some of it as a courtesy and trade agreement But from within the United States we have both the landmass we have the water we have the resources But most important is we had men with minds we have effeminate turds that have become Insane, but we've allowed that we've let them look at what's happened to the population And remember, don't work hard, work smart. In other words, be lazy, sit on your dead ass. Now again, part of the only way that can happen is that short term buy with the bucket money handout. That bucket money handout thing started in the 90s. It was actually around before that. But the big thing is when the Clintonistas, the Bushites and the Clintonistas changed the accountability on the coffers of America. All of a sudden there was no accountability for the five gallon bucket of cash that was dropped off wherever they chose to do it. And before you had to account for where the money went, you had to have a serial number on everything you bought. If it was government, government was supposed to be minimalist and you had to be husbanding the Treasury of America. But once they let that massive corruption level apply, It trickled down and is now reflected in every aspect of the ludicrously, the insanity and the stupidity we're seeing now. No accountability. In fact, there was a short time there where they wanted to try and back up and correct that. You know what? The whole state of Michigan went into brain fart because nobody, none of the characters they'd hired in the time since they changed. none of the characters that were presently hired had any clue or ability in terms of discipline to actually do the paperwork. They had, they were, in fact, they were totally mind-boggled. I watched it, personally. They went into idiot mode. I mean, they went into absolute brain fart mode. So, it's not that things can't be, you know, it's not that we can't do it right. It's just the machine won't do it. This machine, way there now, the corruption is so deep that it has to be cleansed out. It has to be gone. And it means having the discipline of an adult to do it. So. Again, stay focused. But right now the AR-10 is the project rifle for those of you who want to get into the project with the 6.8 because it'll be the most affordable way to already have a rifle in hand. And if they do, which it's obviously going to, they're going to try to make everything you do no matter what it is perceived to be illegal. Remember, the purpose behind confusion is to make you believe that something's illegal when it's not. That's the that's the nature of fear with a with a tyrannical government. Okay We are at the top and by the way, we got to go. We should have Craig from forbidden knowledge coming up here guys part of our currency solution Let's get what he's got off the shelf let's put the rest in service god bless. Bye. Bye If you're listening on oh see June 22nd, I think. It's the longest day of the year. And I have more work to do tonight before the sun goes down, but something goes down to like 930. It's nice to have the extra time, but kind of pumped today. I got some exciting news, at least exciting for me. Won't be exciting for you guys, really. Won't be that interesting. I'm going to talk about today since I didn't have any time to do any research, although I can talk about another topic as well. Is there anybody there still following the, I'm down in a week or two? The Army Truck Saga, those of you who don't know, has a military five-ton dump truck that hasn't run. It's a 1955 Mac gasoline engine that hasn't run in more than 20 years, well about 20 years. And I've tried to see if I could get it running and it's looking. Anyway, let me tell you on the progress of that. That's what I'm gonna talk about tonight. So if you don't want to listen to, but I got some very interesting, this is gonna be very interesting. At least if you have any interest in vehicles or military vehicles or maybe vehicles in general, you might be really, really interested in what's come about here. Okay, so I have that dump truck. It's after 20 years and the engine was not moving at all. for a while and so I got working. We talked about that already where I put a little oil in each cylinder, worked it back and forth and got the engine moving. So I can move it by hand with a fan and by the belts. So I was able to finally get so it's not seized. It wasn't seized. Well it was seized, or at least it seemed like it might have been a light rust inside the cylinder somewhere. But anyway, it's moving good now. We got it moving good now. Okay, so probably worth saving. However, a moving engine does not mean it's a good engine. So I got thinking about it later, and we haven't talked about this part from here. I'm going to talk about any of this. So I'm thinking later that probably I better do a compression check. That's probably the best way to see if your engine might be good. Because if you don't have compression or if you have low compression, then things are not going to run, no matter how much money you throw in. Well, unless you rebuild it. And I was still at that point, I still try to determine whether the trucks were saving because they might just scrap it at that point. Don't want to scrap it. I want to use it. Yeah, I need it really so But the end is bad. You know, boy, we're talking probably $5,000 to pull that engine and rebuild it. So anyway, what I did was I pulled the starter out and I couldn't get it to crank it with it all the start Okay, let's do the poll start out. See if there's something wrong with the starters. I pulled the starter out And basically I wanted it directly to the battery and nope the starter works fine Well, how it was rebuilt in 1970 after all I wouldn't work Yeah, military had a tag on there. He built 1970. So it started here in the starter turn. Just fine. Make any weird noise or anything. So, starter work. So, then I checked the switch. The switch seemed to work on the starter. There's actually a solenoid and a switch because there's a mechanical linkage that when you push the starters on the floor, you push down on the floor pedal and it engages a linkage. that moves the Bendix forward, little pinion gear, into the flywheel. And when that pedal bottoms out, there's a switch that gives flow to the electricity, 24 volts, to get the end to the starter turn. And then as soon as you let off the pedal, the starter disengages. And the pinion and the Bendix backs off the Bendix. I think probably most of you understand. Most of you understand more about any of the meat, probably. But anyway, this is probably making sense the most. So anyway, to do a compression test, though, I had to have the engine cranking. I'm not going to be able to do it by hand. It's just I can't move it fast enough to get good readings. I don't think that's possible. So I have to get the engine cranking somewhere and somehow. It's okay, so I'm going to do a start. So we'll get the starter back in. And I think I had a bad solenoid. I did find trace back the wiring and there is a solenoid. about a few feet away under the frame, in the frame, tucked in the frame on the right-hand side of the truck. And so I thought I had a problem there. So, okay, what I did was I took a jumper cable and went straight from the, just like I did with the testing of starter, jumper cable straight from the 24 volt battery to the starter. But I had somebody, I got some help out there, had somebody in the cab pushing the linkage to the floor, and then I cracked the engine. So. And then there and as somebody else reading the compression gauge the compress of the compression test So their compression test on all of them that way and I'm gonna make a video by the way I've got a lot of footage that I need to put together I don't know how soon I'll be able to get that video on YouTube But I'm I think it's gonna be an adventurous with people and maybe it'll give some more interest in the channel So there's a compression test And I have the numbers in front of me. I got a good idea what the hour doesn't really I don't have the numbers in front of me. But anyway The numbers for the combustion test, this manually this way, was plus two cylinders were within two PSI, within two PSI each other. One was 70 and one was 68. I'm going by memory here. Let's see if I can find that piece of paper. Here it is. I'm walking around outside so if there's wind noise, I'm sorry. All right. Cylinder number 170. Cylinder number two, 68. Cylinder number three, 18. Cylinder number four, 40. cylinders were within a couple points of 70. So I thought that looked good. And so I looked up the specs on that engine and find out the normal compression is supposed to be between 110 and 130 PSI. So that engine, even if all of them were at 70, it means it's very worn and that engine is not going to run. I would think that engine is not going to run. especially since three of the cylinders. So three of the cylinders are near 70 and three of the cylinders are 40 or less. So obviously that's not good. So here's what I... Okay, so now I'm back to square one. I'm thinking to God, am I gonna have to scrap this thing? Because where am I gonna spend a lot of money? Okay, here's my thinking. Glad you're there, because you might be able to answer some questions for me. My thinking probably is on track, but it's not complete because I'm not a mechanic. There's three things in my view of my half mechanical mind that could be the problem there. Could be something as simple as a head gasket and that wouldn't take too much to change. There's two heads there so I can lift them up and replace the head gasses. The head gasses are available. I checked before I got into this. So I can get head gasses for it. I can replace head gasses. But that might not be the problem. But that would be the simplest sex because of per 100 bucks in gaskets or whatever. Or less I can probably do that myself replace that guess. Okay, so that's a possibility number one That guess could be leaking Let me let me continue on here and then you'll say a second possibility could be valves Valves not seating good or just they need to be ground to be the valve job now that job I have done a valve job on a car I had but way way way back in the 70s and I was in a shop though in a mechanic pointing me what to do and using his grinding tool and all that so I Look, there's a valve and I so I understand a little bit. I told the valves there could be something maybe other stuff something a piece of rust clogged in there that's Keeping a valve from seating or there could be other things are about carbon carbon carbon is common And that's the thing that could be clean, but I would still be tear if you got the chair apart that had everything apart So and that would be if I had somebody do that for me since I don't have the tools for that the right tools for that I could pull the heads off and I could take them to a shop and I'm just off the top of my head I'm guessing between a thousand and two thousand dollars to have the have the valves ground or completely decarbonized or whatever So that's a see that worked You shouldn't be that much you say Not in my opinion and in my experience it isn't when it could a few hundred dollars. Yeah, it could be but Unless someone is very unusual about this engine, it should not cost anything like a thousand dollars. Okay, no. Alright, good. And there's still a possibility I might rebuild this thing, but let me continue the story. The third possibility, which would be the most expensive one, would be rings, pistons. If that air is all escaping... Bypassing the piston rings then you got a problem there again my thinking either rings or worn so pistons or Or what scored scored cylinders rust that's pitted That would not be good because that means basically removing the engine and rebuilding the block and boring out the cylinders You can get a an idea whether or not it's the rings Is this engine more or less straight up and down I mean not not at an angle like another the old Chrysler sant six that this ends are more or less straight up and down straight up and down well you could squirt a tablespoon or so of Engine oil heavy any kind of a heavy oil into those three cylinders and move the pistons up and down a little bit to where it distributes around the ring. And then do another compression test, and if it comes up a lot, then that would indicate that you've got either seized rings or those rings are worn out, which, considering the difference between them and the other three, it sounds to me more like possibly seized piston rings. That can happen especially with carbon buildup and the rings just won't move out against the cylinder walls and create much of a seal. That's one way you can get an idea if it's a ring problem. If there's no difference then it's either head gasket or valves and doing that with the oil in the cylinder would have some effect on sealing a head gasket. If it were a running engine you could check for vapor coming out of the cooling system which was a strong indicator of a blown head gasket but they're normally either blown to the outside of the block or between cylinders. So my Just from your description, I recommend you give the oil sealing the rings a try. That is something that could also work to free up the rings. I don't know what kind of oil you used when you lubricated it before, but a penetrating oil like coil or some something like could. Our moral mystery could free those rings up if that turns out to be indicated. When you say heavy oil, are we talking like S A 30 or are you talking like 80 90? Well, whatever you've got available and in my own experience I have used engine oil 30 to 50 SC, you know, but gear oil 80 90 that would work too. Okay, well what I, what, the weight of the oil isn't critical. It's just, it's what I did before. And oil in order to seal the rings. Right, here's what I did before. We had, when I, I did put oil in there twice, but not, not specifically for the compression test. And I have seen some YouTube videos that did suggest what you say about adding oil and checking again. But anyway, I put transmission fluid in there basically is all I put in the ring just to lubricate things up a bit. But I didn't specifically add more for the test. Now there could have been some oil still in there or that could have already ran out. I don't know of course because I don't have a scope to look inside to see what's going on in there. So but I will try that. Yeah, transmission fluid is an excellent hydraulic fluid. It is on the thin side. So if those rings are seized or worn out more likely seized in my opinion It would most likely have made its way past the rings into the crankcase Now if the rings are if the rings are seen you still got to pull the whole engine apart base Well, then you may be able to do it from underneath right removing the crank, but boy, that's still a huge job It's a big as pulling the engine well I am not confident enough to, I can get the engine out of there and I can take it to a shop. I'm not confident enough to be able to measure the bore size and see what's wrong with it. In other words, if it's something dealing with the rings, that's not something I'm likely to be able to do myself, I'm guessing, because I'm going to have to take it to a shop. Now, I don't know the answer to this yet, but because I have such a low compression on three of the cylinders, I'm afraid that there's probably something wrong. the piston end of the things and unless it could be this look could be valves, but I'm a little worried about but anyway I can find your suggestion and see if I can get a better reading using oil Because it'd be nice. I didn't have to pull that engine apart, but yeah Go ahead Let me advance this for because because a lot of this talk might be at a moot point at this point Because here's here's what's going on here. I'm very excited about what happened All right, so now I'm looking at an engine that needs work of some kind for sure. Whether it's going to be $100 or thousands of dollars, I don't know yet. And I'm getting worried about it, so I didn't order all the parts that I was thinking of buying. If it's the ring, there's anything to do with the pistons. I'm going to have to pull the engine. This is what I would have to do, unless I can get somebody out there. I would have to pull the engine out and take it to a shop and have them rebuild it and bring it back. And based on when I had my John Deere engine rebuilt, now it's a diesel, the John Deere four cylinder cost me $6,000 to have it rebuilt. Now, this engine probably wouldn't cost as much as a gasoline one, but I'm guessing it's probably in the neighborhood of $3,000 to $4,000 and I'm looking at minimum. If I pulled that engine and took it to the shop and had them go over the whole engine and rebuild the block. So that's obviously very expensive and I didn't want to have to go that route because the truck might not really be worth that. So here's what's going on now. And I'm looking at it right now. Boy, this is kind of a weird story. This is the fun part. When I was at the Finlay Show, Finlay Military Vehicle Show, which I put a video up on YouTube, by the way, if you haven't seen that, you can go to YouTube and that's like three weeks ago, roughly. I got a lot of names and numbers, talk a lot of cards, talk to people. Got some networking going on. And then when I found out that I had this compression problem, I thought, oh great, let me start going down the line. I started calling the parts companies and, okay, look up this engine. He said, boy, we haven't seen one of those in a long time. So, okay, I'm worried about that. This is the biggest military parts dealer in the country. It's a company called Memphis Equipment. I don't get paid for this. Memphis Equipment near Memphis, obviously. And I bought from them 20 years ago. They've been around forever. And they can, at the time, 20 years ago, they said, oh yeah, we could pull the whole truck off the inventory off of our shelves. We can basically build a whole truck right from what we got on the shelves. So, okay, cool, they got everything. So, I talked to them. They said, well, MC1 was in a long time. It's got a Continental R6602. Now, I started looking it up before I came on. the air here and I think the first six means a six cylinder, the second three numbers I think is 602 cubic inch. That's what I'm thinking, but I'm not positive that maybe somebody out there knows. But anyway, that's the engine is a Continental R6602. So how do you got that from the parts manual? Because when I was at Finlay I bought parts technical manual and service manual, technical manual, military stuff. Okay, so here's this is really cool So anyway, I'm calling around calling around the parts department said yeah We can you look up a few of things. Well, we got a rebuild kit gasket kit here So we got all the gaskets gotta yeah, we got head gaskets Yeah, we got our pistons if you had to let me just check 20 oversize, you know point two thousand oversize Yeah, we got those in stock and got the rings So it seemed like he said he was pretty confident that no matter what you needed for that engine I should be able to rebuild it. So That's a start. That means the parts are available and I might be able to work with that. Okay, but it's still going to be very expensive after we go to the whole engine. But the parts are available. So, I did a lot of calling and I'm also looking around for a junk one, a junkyard engine. A hit or miss there, whether or not they know the engine's any good, boy, it's a gamble. But anyway, I talked to some of the yards where military equipment are. And no, we don't have one. We don't have one. I haven't seen one of those in a while. They'll fix up producing those long time ago, and they don't service them anymore. They don't have any more. They just got rid of them all. So no help there. So basically, they were all surplus out back 25 years ago, 25, 30 years ago, this particular model, the M51, with the gasoline continental engine in it. So anyway, I got a return call about two weeks after I made all those calls. About a week after I made all those calls from some, from one of the other vendors, remember I was a vendor there at the Finlay military vehicle show. From the other vendors that I had known a bit and I bought from him before in the past years and you know, he knew of me. And he said, yeah, I got one of those in the barn. Oh yeah? What do you want for it? $2,000. Oh, sounds good. And he told me a little bit more about it. This is the big surprise. This is a rebuild engine. It came by the military in a big container. I'm looking at the tag was writing some of the tags in the paperwork. It was rebuilt in 1978. I read River Army Depot. I looked them up near Texarkana, Texas. This is like They rebuild and work on all the vehicles the military deals with. It's been packed away. Now, the outside of the container, I didn't have a chance to look inside until I bought it. And then opened up today. Picked it up yesterday. A five-hour round trip to get it, so it wasn't too bad. $150 in fuel. It would not fit in my truck. This container is five feet wide, five feet high, six and a half feet long. and weighs 33,175 pounds. So a little over a ton and a half. And it's all too much for my truck. Even my digger, Derek, it wouldn't fit in the bed of that thing. So I got my trailer that I just recently rebuilt after sitting for 19 years. Working in the novel license plates expired in 03. And so anyway, I picked it up on the trailer. It's a car hauler. And so sitting on my trailer right now, I popped the lid on up today. The outside of the case, look at it, it had a date of 689. I think that's a date, maybe it's not a date. But I assumed it was back in 1989. So 33 years ago. So it's on the outside, the part number, engine, one each, all the militaries, didn't take me out on it. The OG Green metal case that is, as you can hear, I'm knocking on it, that's metal. Pretty heavy gauge steel. In fact, I think they would stack them three or four high in the warehouse. Caution, release pressure, thoroughly air filling valve before opening container. So like some of the military containers that I've seen before that I have in stock actually, this actually, they would, I heard two of them story. They heard one, the guy that bought it from said vacuum. that they would actually pull a vacuum on this thing. It's got a gasket all the way around. There's 36 bolts that hold the two halves together. The lid weighs about, probably about 200 pounds, maybe more. I used the crane to get it up. This lid, there's no way, I don't think two people can really get this thing off. I think you'd need four people or a crane. I popped the lid today. And let me tell you, boy. Okay, this is an R6602. It was, according to the paperwork, rebuilt in 1978. So we're talking 44 years ago. It was rebuilt. It is a piece of art. Nice old green paint. And I am shocked at the condition of it, how good it is. Now on the side of the port here, on one of it, there's actually a humidity indicator. And the humidity indicator shows good, because these change colors. So it comes to paint, nothing is changed to paint. So it's not even up to 30% humidity in there. over that time period, however long it's been packed. Because the color change area, 40 and 50 percent humidity. So if it changes, then you know they got a problem. Because the air valve says fill to five pounds pressure, dry air only. By the way I understood it is they would pressurize these things to five PSI nitrogen. So I don't know where the vacuum might need to get from, although this thing could certainly hold back. So I don't know which. And when I started undoing the bolts, there wasn't anything. I'm assuming it's air escaping outward from pressure inside the container. All right, so it gets better, folks. So I popped the lid on it, and all the black silicone sealant and the gasket and everything, everything was still sealed. Beautiful color green. Isn't it wonderful? It has everything from the oil pan all the way up to the valve covers. But it has even more than that. Now, usually, I remember buying an engine for a truck I had once, and you buy an engine and you just get an engine block. You don't get any heads, you don't get any manifolds, you don't get anything else on it. You get an engine block. And this is so much more. It has the engine block, it has bolt heads, it has the exhaust manifold, it has the intake manifold, it has the water manifold on the other side. It has... with linkage, bound into it. It has the generator, this belt, it has the water pump, it has the fan blades, it has the air compressor, it has hoses connecting all the water ports together, channels, whatever you want to call them. Personally, a complete engine, ready to go. Now, one thing that I was surprised at, now when the guy bought it from, he actually did crack the case. and checked it out because I said, well, I'm going to need to make sure the engine actually moves, rotate, so that it's not seized. Along some kind of condition, he looked it up and he said, boy, this looks so good. And he was able to turn it, so I said, OK, so I'll buy. So it does not end. And he said, and he was surprised too when he opened it, he said, boy, it's got a carburetor, it's got a starter. I said, oh, great. I've already had all that stuff, but my carburetor needs rebuilding. Well, all the things I mentioned, I think he said spares. Yeah. Oh yeah. Now I have an extra starter, I have an extra generator, I have an extra water pump, I have an extra pressure, but it did not have, and I didn't know what exactly it had, and I only went by what the guy told me when he said he'd pop the case and look at it. He said it had a carburetor, but it does not have a carburetor. That's not a huge deal. I have a carburetor and you have to rebuild my, but my rebuild kit with all the gaskets and needle valves or whatever else I'm going to need. I don't know enough about it. I mean, the second the shop has to play knows what they're doing, rebuild the carburetor, not sure. Cause mine is probably full of varnish and cause it's been, gas has been sitting in there for 20 years. Although the good news is it's real gas that back then helped. I don't think they had the ethanol in the gas. There might be some help there, but anyway, I don't think so. I'll rebuild the carburetor. That's not a huge deal. I've checked my parts and hopefully the kits are available for that. So I'm looking at this engine, it's so beautiful. It has everything but the carburetor. I was told there that that particular model had two different carburetors and two different things. They didn't include a carburetor on there because there was two different models. And somebody told me the brand names and I don't know what I have. But I'll have to take my carburetor out and have that rebuilt. So I have a lead engine with More than I could hope for. I mean, I guess having a carburetor could be the most I could hope for. But that's not a huge deal. The only thing that hurts from missing, including belts, I mean, this is incredible. And it's ready to go. I mean, yeah, I get the carburetor hooked up and you don't do some adjustments and stuff. And then there's oil in the pan. So I did a compression test on this. Because, okay, it looks beautiful, but is it really a good engine? So I spent the day today after I popped the top. I checked out the, I thought I needed to do a compression test on this engine too. Checked all the paperwork because the paperwork's complete, signed off by the mechanics. There's about four pages of information here about it from the Red River Army Depot. And looking at the paperwork, and both they did a compression test. And they shipped it. The Russian test reads three cylinder. 119, 118, 122, 120, 122, and 120. So within four points of each other, all cylinders have to be four points. Excellent. Yeah, the rule of thumb is the lowest cylinder should be at least 75% of the highest. And you've got practically a new engine there. That is excellent. It is a rebuilt engine, of course. I, so, okay, I'm gonna test it myself, because it's been sitting for 44 years. It could possibly go on in 44 years, but anyway, so I've decided I'm gonna do a compression test anyway, even though I have the numbers here. From the factory, from the Red River, what is it called, Red River Army Depot, again, I look them up online. And I'm gonna do a compression test myself. I wanna make sure before I spend all this extra time, I already spent the money on this thing, hopefully it's good. So I did a compression test before I did that though, okay, so there is oil in it. I don't know what kind of oil. And it's, I don't know how much, it's low, but it shows on the dipstick. It's just the tip of the dipstick is touching oil. So okay, I figured there's probably enough oil in there I don't have to worry about grinding the engine just doing a compression test. I'm not bruising it very much anyway, it's only up to noon. Each time I cut the cylinder, I'm only turning the engine over maybe seven or eight times, whatever. So I'm a figure even if it was dry, I probably wouldn't have to worry about that. But anyway, there is some oil in it. I don't know what kind of oil. The filters are on here too, the oil filter. So there's oil in there. So I figure it's probably safe to do a compression test. It's like if you're checking your car and your most cars and trucks, you put your dipstick down in there and you're just touching the end of the dipstick, you're like a quart below the roll mark. That's kind of... what I see here. Now, a quart in this case might be a half gallon, but it's about one whole mark below the low level. So anyway, it has oil in it. Some oil in it. Not enough, I wouldn't want to run it, but you're going to crush them, I don't think I was worried about. So anyway, I checked that beforehand. So, okay, is there anything else? And it comes with a spark plug, by the way. A spark plug here, a brand new spark plugs. And so I removed all spark plugs and put my compression tester in there. And hold the batteries out of my crane because my crane is what I use to pull this lid. There's no way I could have done this by myself. This lid probably weighs over 200 pounds. The container itself probably weighs about 500 pounds. So I'm guessing the engine is probably over a ton, probably in the neighborhood somewhere between 2,000 and 2,500 pounds. That's my guess. Because I'm guessing the container is pretty heavy. But anyway, I'd use my crane to lift the lid, my digger, Derek. Luckily that was working fine. I had to pull the batteries from my army truck, because I was using them to truck or check the starter, put them back in the digger digger, then bring the digger digger to where the engine is and pull the batteries again, put the batteries on the trailer, hook it up with jumper cables so I can manually crank this thing with the starter. This is the starter first before engaging, and the starter definitely worked directly from the batteries. Then I started doing the combustion test, I put my tester in one centimeter. Let me see my time here if I'm running out of time. Nope, I'm doing okay. Then, so I put the cross-road conversion test there in cross-cylinder and engaged the bendix and cranked it. Let it crank. The gauge went up immediately, but I spoke that I was told you crank it over a bit. You know, just immediately stop, you crank it over sometimes. And it's our reading of 105, about 15 points below what... the factory set up when it left the shop in 1978 when it was rebuilt. So, okay, that's still a lot better than what I have, but here's the thing. And I tested every single cylinder and they all read, my gauge doesn't have the accuracy to determine between. Like say 105 or 105 on 110, my gauge just doesn't have the accuracy. I bought it at Harbor Freight Tools, so there you go. It's a consumer grade thing, and it might not be accurate anyway. And I'm thinking it probably isn't because each cylinder, basically from my gauge, tested out, all of them tested out at about 105 to 110 with my gauge. Now again, Harbor Freight, made in China, crap. Pittsburgh. No, it wasn't made in Pittsburgh. So I am hoping my gauge is wrong. And if my numbers, if they were elevated 15 PSI, roughly, they would match the numbers I got from the factory in 1978. I don't press the case or not, and I'm still going to do some more checking. But right now, I'm confident enough to think that probably this engine is ready to go. So tomorrow, and I just got this... Yes. In all the years it's been sitting, I would be willing to bet it's lost some of the oil that was in, that was around the rings. When an engine has a symbol like that, their rings and pistons are coated with oil to slide down into the cylinders. So once it runs a little bit, once it turns over some, Oil will be up in those rings and I, in my opinion, the compression will rise. And another thing, those Pittsburgh compression testers, my own experience, they tend to register a little bit low also. But that's all. Okay, my question for you, you may know this, maybe not. Okay, so I'm cranking it, but I'm not. I'm not running the engine. Young engine is not running. It's not, it's only, I'm only cranking it. It's not the RPM of a running engine and it's also, is the oil actually being delivered by only cranking it for five or ten seconds with each owner? Is the oil actually starting to fall or is it just still kind of something there and just starting to get, how long did it take for the oil to start blowing into the engine? You know? Out? Well, the oil begins to flow almost instantly. It would have been distributed to the bearings first. It goes to the bearings, then the cam. About the last place it would be being delivered to is through the crank. Some engines are drilled to deliver oil to the rod and they even have a tiny passage which leads to the end of the wristband and the piston. But others are just the remainder oil, the splash oiling from the, you did get some oil circulation to the bearings along first directly from the oil pump. The oil pump would have begun picking up immediately. So that amount of cranking did get some oil moving. Yeah. Assuming that the oil pump is the sump is buried enough to pump the oil, which I'm guessing it probably is, it's, you know, it's registering a court, I call it a court, whether it is registering like a whole court below the low level. But I don't think that's low enough to have no oil being delivered, correct? The oil sump would be at the very bottom, correct? Of the oil pan? Correct. The oil pump goes to within I have to sometimes only a quarter inch of the bottom of the band. It would have picked up though. If it's showing on the dipstick, it had more than enough oil to be picked up. Yes. Good. That's what I kind of figured. Okay. So. Here's the situation, and I'm looking at this thing, and boy, it's a beauty. And it's fun. And the belts were loose, the base belts were there, but they were just kind of loose, and I wanted to crank it over by hand using the fan because of the fan and the butt using a strap wrench on the hard-mock balancer. So I tighten up the belt, so I'm adjusting the generator to pull to tighten these belts up. And clean your hands, don't get dirty, and all the bolts work, nothing's rustling. It's just a fun thing. to work on a brand new engine. I'm looking at the tag right now. And I don't know the, I'm presuming the military didn't install junk. This is Continental Motors Corp. I'm looking at the tag right now. Main USA Continental Motors Corp. Muskegon, Michigan. Got a model number, got a serial number, bore stroke standard, broad standard, mains minus one thousandth. But anyway, an overhauled at RRAD, that's the Red River Army Depot, date of 6 of 78. These are the metal tags directly on the engine. And then there's some serial numbers stamped on here on the engine block. And it's just, I took a lot of video. I'm going to produce a video up on YouTube. We will. Do an unboxing video. I don't know if you've ever seen anybody out there see YouTube that people do unboxing videos where they have a whole piece of audio stereo or a scooter or something. We're gonna pick it out of the box. We're gonna show it. We're going to put it together and run it and maybe evaluate it, you know, get to what their opinion is. Well, this is like the ultimate. Since when do you find an engine that's rebuilt 44 years ago? This is like the ultimate box. So anyway, I'm gonna make a video with that approach. And then also the saga continues on the military truck. I'm going to make a series of videos probably. I'm not able to build, so I'm going to be a mechanic this year. The Army truck, I'll get going myself, or most of the work will be done myself. Now, when I pull my old engine and put the new one in, I'll be using the crane and easily handle this, and there's lifting lugs on it already. I'm going to need help when that time comes because I can't just pop it in there with a crane. It's going to need at least one person to help me shove it into the right place while the crane is holding it up. But that will be done since it doesn't need much work. So tomorrow I'm going to get on the phone and I'm going to start ordering wheels, carburetor rebuild kit. For all the pieces, hopefully I can find a battery box and all the things and new batteries. All the things I'm going to start ordering all this stuff now, I'm probably going to need at least a couple thousand dollars for all this stuff to continue. So it's still going to cost. But for buying this base engine with all the accessories, except for the carburier, already installed for only $2,000, I think I got a really good bargain. I think. Even the exhaust manifold here and even the exhaust manifold is green. You never look under the hood and see an exhaust manifold that holds paint, right? So this engine probably was never run. Or maybe they did run it and then they painted it afterwards. I don't know how they do it when they rebuild. If they test it running, I don't really know what they do with the army people. Some engines are tested after rebuild. But they often have a test stand which would have had an exhaust manifold ready to hold onto it. So that would probably explain why that is completely painted. I'm sure you know that'll cook off pretty quick after it's running. Yeah, it'll be rust colored real quickly. Yeah, I'm looking at the US government property. Reusable container, do not destroy. I don't know what I'm going to do with this thing. I'm going to put the old engine back in the container, I suppose, and figure out what I'm going to do with it later. Because if it's something simpler, like you suggest, that could be wrong with it, then I might rebuild the engine. You either have a spare engine or sell that engine to somebody like me who needed an engine. If it doesn't look like it's going to cost too much. But in the meantime, I'll have spares of just about everything. Everything but a carburetor. The only thing that can go wrong with the engine, I'll have virtually a spare already there. Including a head or something else I might need depending on what's wrong with it. Anyway, I'm super psyched about this excited about this project. Go ahead. Did you say that engine has two separate heads one for each two or three cylinders? Yes. Well and the the three cylinders on your engine that are low or under one of the heads. I mean let me look at this again closer. Yes, definitely the space between the two cylinders. So the, so the probably each head probably only weighs around 100 pounds I'm guessing. So it could be pulled off by hand. What was your second part of your question? All three of the lowest cylinders are under the same head, correct? No. Two in one. I was thinking if they were all three under the same head that would It's not the case. All I have to do is pull the old engine and put this new one in. And that's why I'm excited about this because I don't have to diagnose anything now. At least not the engine. I'll have to do the car reader, but the engine, I don't have to diagnose anything. It's going to be a simple bolt-in procedure. Well, not quite simple for me. Whereas a shop can probably do that. Is it a manual transmission? Manual transmission, power steering. What was your question? Does the truck have a manual transmission? I assume it does. Yes, five speed with a high and low. Well, if you have any doubts about the clutch, this would be the time to change the clutch bearing. I mean, the clutch bearing. I'll look into that. I have no idea exactly how to check that with an engine that doesn't run. But when you pull the engine, you can look at it. You might even take the old clutch. You know, it's a path that clutch bearing brings in and out. You can take the clutch down to a shop where they can resurface things and they can look at it and tell you if it's if it doesn't need to resurface resurfacing or not. But while we have no kind of like the time to look at it, kind of like a drum break pad, right? Yeah, kind of. Okay, well that's a good suggestion because yeah, I wouldn't want to put in a new engine and find out I have a problem with my clutch. So that's something I need to be look, the clutch pedal works fine. So the linkage and everything seems the cable or whatever is there. That all seems to be fine. So I'm not worried about that. But yeah, if you don't have the proper grip or it's worn, then yeah, that's something I should, I will have to look at that. That's a good suggestion. Yes, Tom, when you have access. Yeah. So let me see what else. Fuel pumps on there, the oil filters. Power steering, I believe that's fine. I have to look and see what that is exactly. I have to see where my power steering. It does have power steering and it looks like there's a reservoir here which I don't see big hoses. So the small hoses are called one hose. I don't know what this is exactly. But anyway, I'll have to look into a small, like a half inch nipple going to it. But there's only one. I think there's power steering. You have to have two, right? You have to have a return and a supply. It says, Tighten your most always their cap and as I pull the cap I don't see any oil in there, but it's a I'm guessing power I don't know it's not the oil filler Again, I'm not much of a mechanic. I'm gonna be a little bit more of a mechanic by the time it's over So that's the situation Yes, how much should you say you paid for that new motor Only two thousand two thousand bucks. And what'd you got in the end of that truck? Well so far virtually nothing. I haven't bought hardly anything for it other than a tire iron and a few other minor things. What did you pay for the truck? Well, that was back 25 years ago or so, 25 to 30 years ago. I think I have a funny call. I only paid like 3,500 for it at the time. And it didn't run then. It's never ran since you've had it. Oh, no, no, it ran fine when I bought it and I used it for a number of years. Oh, I see. Where the truck is now, I parked it there and it was running fine when I parked it. So that's why I don't understand about it. Okay. I don't know about the massive change in the compression because I had that compression back 20 years ago when it ran last, it would not have run, I wouldn't think. So anyway, yeah, the truck ran fine. It was in good working condition. I'm going to put another four or five thousand into it to get it running properly. But frankly, I've looked around at the five ton trucks at the Finlay show and people are wanting like 18 to $20,000 for the equivalent type truck. So it's worth it. I think even it's so old. The guy that I bought his engine from also had vendors. You've got a lot of other things. Oh, he didn't have anything, but apparently I'll be able to get anything I need through various sources with all the information I got from the thin-laced self. That's awesome. So Anna just says that's a beautiful thing and then they have it still sealed in the case from the military. Yeah, that's pretty awesome. That's why I'm psychopotics. Yeah, that's pretty cool. I appreciate the story on it. I'm legally blind so I can... I can see in my mind's eye everything you're saying pretty often. Over the next few weeks, again it's my own pace and for somebody who doesn't know what they're doing, a shop could probably do this in a day or two, right? If they were in a shop and doing it right. How about two or three mechanics working on it? I can do that one. I'll get it done. You got some serious wind noise blocking everything you're saying. Oh okay, let me go to the inside here. into an area where I'm protected from the wind. I'm apt to do this myself, so it's going to take a lot longer. And there'll be time off to order, so there'll be some parts I need to order and things I need to look at or things I have to take in to have somebody else look at. So it'll be a while, but hopefully within about a month's time I can have this truck running. So I think the southern thumb, where are you at? Right now the truck is in southern Michigan. It's kind of near Jackson, Michigan, kind of near Adrian, Michigan. I don't know if you're ever going to be able to see it. Sure, yep. Yep. So that's when that's, but that doesn't matter much. The parts are available. By mail order from wherever I have to order him from so it's not location is it doesn't appear to be that problem with the problem and luckily it was close enough I could pick it up because I'm frankly if I did have a Shipper do it as would cost me probably between five hundred and a thousand dollars have a ship to me Well, I just wondered you know I didn't really wonder where the truck is but you personally I know you're from Michigan and I'm in the southern thumb and I just wondered you know whereabouts you you Park at night I'm at least a couple hours away from the southern Tom area. Uh-huh. You're talking about Bay City area, kind of? I'm farther south than that, not too far south from that, but yeah. Yeah, I used to do shows up in Bertrand. There was a coastal site in that area. Okay, yep. Very good, but okay. Okay. That's exciting. I'm glad you're talking about it. That's pretty cool. Oh, you look me you're pretty pretty knowledgeable there fella Yeah, he's been helping work on a bunch of cars That's awesome. Help from the start and you're probably more of a help to as we go along. We'll see No, no telling what I'll get into here, but luckily I got my crane running and so handling this engine It is not a problem. Now before I get started tonight, I'm going to put the cover back on this thing and we'll bolt it all together. But keep all the critters out of here and rain off of it if it rains. So hopefully I can do this by myself because this is not. Again, this is the cover. The container probably weighs close to 500 pounds, I'm guessing. And the cover itself is probably about 200 pounds. I tried budging it by hand when it was still on there. After I got all the 36 volts or 32 volts undone, and I could not budge it. I could not budge it. Of course, it still might have been held together by this sealant. It looks like a black silicone. I could not budget, but then I pulled it off with the crane and put it on the ground. I tried to budget by using a long bar. I was able to lift it just a tiny bit on one corner. So this is not a cheap container. Don't know what you could use it for. I don't know what I'm going to use it for, but the old engine has a spare. I'm going to put it upside somewhere. Having to store it inside will be a problem. I'll probably just paint it again. Paint it over the green inside and off the property somewhere outside. But it will still be well protected from the elements. So, I'm storing here. My show is just about over. Stay tuned. Do you want to watch the, within a day or two, hopefully I'll have a video out. I've got two videos that I'm going to do about the truck, the next two videos. Watch the YouTube channel called ForBidTV. That's ForBidTV with no space. ForBid spelled with two D's. And I will have some videos up soon, hopefully, because I did take a lot of footage today and yesterday that I hope to make in the video. Because it'd be like the ultimate so try to get more traffic to the town because the you to know YouTube algorithm hates me so much today I just can't be able to get anywhere with the channel and no no advancement whatsoever So helping to get some some interest. It doesn't look like I'm gonna be building anytime real soon Still trying to after three months of still trying to get a mechanic that claims he's gonna come out and work on my John Deere And I've had so many that can't give me the same kind of promises for the last year and a half getting really sick of it Maybe I'll happen to do that machine myself, too I don't know but meantime I'm gonna keep my hands real busy with this army truck. I need that John Deere fix to call a loader It's a little bit different a diesel Some of the things are the same thing, but there's the timing of the injectors and all this kind of I just don't have any clue what I'd be doing Thanks everybody for listening. Hopefully I'll be on next week. Do an update or next week, whatever. I'm pretty confused, but I wanted to get this one out. Hopefully next time, we'll host a podcast. Thanks for listening. Hold on. And speaking low to me, he said, we fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this, the land of the free and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you, we hoped you'd always keep. But tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this, the land of the free, home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent. Your children must attend a school that doesn't educate. And your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold you trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You've taken Satan's number You traded in your name You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize the family farm And keep our country deep in debt put men of God in jail harass your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths. They've sworn And your daughters visit doctors so their children Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you'll fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? Most sons of the Republic arise take a stand defend the Constitution the supreme law of the land Preserve our great Republic and each God given right Pray to God to keep the torch of freedom burning bright As I awoke he'd vanished in the mist from whence he came His words were true. We are not free, but we have ourselves to blame For even now as tyrants trample each God given right we only watch in tremble too afraid to stand and fight If he stood by your bedside in a dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep What would be your answer if he called out from the grave?

And a myriad of communications technologies both inside and outside these United States. And again, it is a beautiful, it's a beautiful mid-summer day. It is the 22nd of June. We've had blue sky, 85 degree temperatures most of the day. Couldn't ask for a more perfect summer day, of course it's during the week, but hey, guess what? Middle of the week, for that matter, middle of the work week. Anyway, it is also, well, again, 22nd of June. It's the 14th year of open obvious and pissing in your face, Fabian socialist and Soviet socialist occupation of America with a K-2022 old earth calendar, 2022 battle for the republic, the dance of swords, and Interestingly enough, a couple things. Here's Weapons Wednesday, by the way. The 6.8 government round, there were three different rifle packages, all grossly expensive, nothing that was going to be reasonably priced, offered. And the only question that I've had, and I can't get a specific on, is each idea offering had its own idea for chambering options. However, typically, While they had the option to produce and introduce a unique round, they also had to have a specification laid down by the donut of destruction. But since nobody's following any rules anymore, they probably chucked that right out the window too, like everything else the parasites do nowadays. The turds have no no no cooth, no class, and no style, and no water. So with the turds that are in the system, the question is, did they Have the 6.8, three-part case specification already laid down? Or did they give them the option for both directions? Because there were a number of different ideas. Obviously, one kind of looked a little bizarre by anybody's standards today, but still, it obviously worked. Each of the prototypes were proposed and supposedly were in whatever fake shoot-off they had. I don't know if much of a real shoot-off took place. It's, you know, this day and age, come on. But anyway, with the tripe trivia and travails of the idiocracy, the SIG design, of course, is what everybody hugingly and brown-envelope-wise, you know, clung to. The 6.8 government round, and I'm not harping on this because I just really want to, but we have to address certain issues. As far as I know, the cup pressure is for the chamber. The overall operating pressure is in temperament of the round is such that the AR-10 should handle it. Now, the only consideration here real quick is, as I pointed out, this is a three-piece, too grossly overcomplicated round that doesn't need to be. It's your tax dollars, of course, not so much at work, but your tax dollars being ripped off by a bunch of parasites who just plan on stealing your blind, okay? And it's foreign. So it's obviously, it's gotta be better. It's foreign, it's the other, it's not American made, which of course is, be the number one underlying problem here. But as an American made solution, as far as I know, and this is the question we need to ask, is what were and or are both the original and present cartridge specifications that all of the prototypes had to work by? In other words, you could be close to the limit of a design, but if you're within the operating specifications, even though it might be bare minimum or limits of the design, it could still be introduced and could be in the running. Okay? So what we're trying to find out for sure is, well, maybe we don't want them to throw a loop here where we have issues with overpressure. Now, there are a number of ways to deal with that, and there's some really neat tricks even with the AR-15 that would be very quick solutions. that would neutralize any pressure buildup in the chamber area based upon the cartridge design. But we need to get the specs on that. They should be public. There's no reason for it to be private. It was a public competition. And it's not like it's a mystery what they're going to. So the specification should all be in the public venue and I'd like to see someone do a breakdown of the performance expectations for the round itself. What was it and what is it supposed to do? What is it presently doing? Okay. Once we have that, we can adapt A couple of ideas with the 6.8 project. Number one, the AR-10 is the most logical, quickly, most rapidly put into service rifle that could almost instantly adapt the 6.8 government without any BS, without any bullshit. Any of the rifles that do possess the ability to be chambered in 760x51 NATO though, certainly could all be chambered in 6.8 government. So the FNFAL, the HK91 slash the G3, the FN49, which by the way, that design lends itself to some very user-friendly processes. There's a couple other designs out there, but the two that are most common and likely beyond the AR-10 would be the FNFAL and the HK because of availability of parts. Whether or not someone is going to build an M14 slash M1A in 6.8 government, until we know what the operating specs are, and I'm very sure that the M14 can handle the chambering, the issue is the amount of time and money and resources spent to convert any of these weapons, especially armory time, it's not really valuable that way. The M14-M1A and any rifles that are presently in 7.62x51NATO that are traditional designs should be left in 7.62x51NATO, feed off existing inventories however they appear, and a priority for building munitions for that particular cartridge would be a priority. Next is the Again, with the 6.8 caliber, the first and best choice for quickest to bring to service and pretty much most reliable would still be the AR-10. We only need half the rifle. We only need to figure out how half the rifle works. The lower system is done. The AR-10 lower, just like the AR-15 lower, nothing changes. When you pop the pins, it stays the way it is. We don't want full auto, we can give a squat less about full auto. When the time comes, you'll understand why. He who can continue to fight, pull the trigger constantly for a sustained period of time wins. Despite the idea that, well, we just pray and pray, we'll just pour it on. Well, that depends on whether or not you're fighting the five-year-old blind kid with the cane across the street like they've been seeing in the past and fighting an American component. made up of a vast majority of people who actually do have fighting experience and or have immersed themselves in the art of war, the art of the trade and are more than capable of applying it and yes there's going to be a learning curve but guess what? That's not going to be difficult to deal with. Because we're on our own turf. First of all we've got to get good real fast. We absolutely have to get good fast. If you are if you understand what's going on right now take seriously the idea whatever weapon system you're gonna embrace I love it I care what you I don't care which body you think cuz Uncle Mark is promoting certain ideas that There's hundreds of millions of Americans out there. There's tens of millions of us out there We have we're gonna have to use everything that's out there on the rifle racks right now. Whatever's presently in the inventory and stuff for sale stuff that's a classic fire. I don't care what it is, whatever gun it is, it's all going to be used. We're going to need every one of them and we'll need more attrition rate, battlefield consumption, wear and tear. Remember a percent of the inventory, the weapons that we have acquired are already, of course, service weapons that have been issued. So there are, again, progressive either preventive maintenance or long-term maintenance issues that have to be addressed, which we already initiated right from the get-go when we found these weapons systems to be available. So we don't have logistics train issues, a problem that most people might believe. The big thing is expanding on that, but also moving up the ladder and down the timeline. And the 6.8 government is in the timeline right now. So it needs to be addressed, and it needs to be the simplest, cheapest, and most efficient and useful solution we can find. And at this point in time, the AR-10 is the answer. Now, the HK-91 and the FAO would be pretty user-friendly and straightforward because I don't believe there'll be any magazine issues, there would not be any gas system issues, the only thing would be barrel change. But, both of those weapons require a tuned barrel. It takes a little more work to get those weapons switched out. Your AR-10 Guys, you pop two pins, the upper and the lower separate, and you switch over to whatever you want. It's just as simple as simple could be, which is why it is the turn two solution. So an AR-10 is what you want to be focusing on next in your collection, if you can. I recommend for, because it is a battlefield superiority weapon, 20 inch barrel if at all possible, 18, if the 20s are gone, 16s when the 20s and the 18s are gone. but preferably an 18 or 20 inch barrel and ideally a 20 because that's the optimal for a 7.62x51 NATO performance round. Now just the battlefield pickup off the belt fed MG on the roof of a burned out vehicle, or I should say a knocked out vehicle. It's the idea that we can really tighten up all of those 7.62x51 NATO guns with our ability to build better than standard ball. So we can tighten up the groups pretty much every weapon out there understanding what to do as an armorer with the arsenal that may be at hand. Part of this has to do with tuning and again, well parts improvement, no modifications, parts improvement. And also munitions availability and improvement of the munitions that are provided to make the weapon go. But on the same token though, I will remind you the AR-10, and I've said this forever, is an orphan, but it's not. The AR-10 magazine is AR-10 specific. If you're gonna commit to an AR-10, buy at least 23 magazines right away, as soon as you can. Working, functional, take your pick, it's part of you're gonna have to bite the bullet, pardon the pun. But you're gonna have to bite the bullet on magazine cost and buy what you need to get to a certain level. Because at this point in time, until we find out more about the magazine for the 6.8 government, foreign rifle, I've just got this gut feeling it's gonna be a bastard, proprietary, bullshit expensive magazine. There ain't no way in hell that the communists in the Pentagon, the communists that are in Washington. are going to allow that magazine to be integral with anything that's out here. That's the first thing that they figure as part of the gun control issue with regard to restricting any weapons that might be acquired is the perishable slash support technology that would be attached to it. Okay? So the 762 by 51 NATO round for as long as it's in service, we'll be using it as is. The magazines should work appropriately with either round. As far as being my, what would be my favorite, whatever I get for the least amount of money and buy the most of. I would also recommend this. I know they make bigger magazines, but a 20 round slab bag is pretty much the optimal management magazine. Now, if you want shorter because you want to get closer to the ground, and I fully believe in that, I would invest in some five-round and ten-round short magazines. Reason? For a very recent I mentioned, some cases you're not going to be spraying and praying and you may want to do placements, you know, an individual target acquisition shoot. You're going to be focusing on range shooting, hitting at distance, okay? Well, you're going to sculpt your machine accordingly. And by having a couple of those shorter round mags on hand, you can keep your silhouette a lot lower to the ground or closer to the contour of whatever you're working with. Also less snag, less tag. You know, less sticking out. This is true of whatever weapon you're using. Why, with my AKs, I have a couple of five round, if not three, five round original Chinese import mags. They also brought them in with the Washers. So there's a bunch of those out there. We got them for 50 cents a piece, 25 cents a piece. They couldn't give them away. Until somebody figured out the base plates and the followers were the same and they were worth a chunk of change all by themselves. And all of a sudden everybody scarfed them up and stripped out the five round mags for all the goodies inside. They forgot about that. And then finally re rejogged, I guess, whatever. So anyway, a couple other things here real quick again. firing pin extractor ejector by the way over at CDN and sports they've got lots and lots and lots of spare AR-10 parts. They're not the only one and as is pointed out you know Arrow Precision has AR-10 also they're not the only ones there's a bunch of other companies Bear Creek Arsenal. Palmetto State Armory does AR-10s so anywhere where there's an AR company they're pretty much they've got AR-10 you know in the works. So you need to do a little research, find what fits your wallet. If you have more money, you don't need to worry about listening to me about, well, we're trying to keep the cost down. Well, spend what your little heart can bear and your wallet has full of. More digits you got, more fun you can have with the weapon you build. Act accordingly. But I would recommend this. Again, if you build a little cheaper, you can have more than one. And two is better than one. Three is better than two. Ten is better than five. You know what I mean? In other words, just keep building. It's obvious we need to be ahead of the curve for what the other side thought they had planned. We have, you know, again, we got the resources. We're independent. We got the thinkers. They got the stinkers. We will act, we connect accordingly on that. So next, another thing, 7.62 by 39. AKs, I mentioned them a couple times here. There are a few good deals on AK mags out there right now and in fact if you do a quick search there are even some deals over at Sportsman's Guide. Now you're going to have to go take a look if they're still in effect but they had some AK I think they were Bulgarian steel for $7.25 a piece. Now remember Sportsman's Guide has a really great deal on shipping. So if you want to be a member, you want to get in there, you want to buy a few things every once in a while, but again, cherry pick and be select. But the big thing is, if you get together with your allies and you see something useful like that, you buy a big pile of them and it's free shipping. And free shipping is a significant issue right now. So take advantage of what it is that's available and utilize accordingly. With regard to the AK mags, somebody's asking if I prefer steel or plastic. I don't care, I've got both. I'm gonna repeat this again about my policy on mags. If all of a sudden somebody's got some two or three dollar mags, they're not really great. Like they had those five dollar Polish mags. Remember last year? And then they went down to 450. It turned out that the followers were semi-proprietary because of the way they were wound, but when they put them in the mags, they didn't worry about it at the factory. And somebody said that there was something wrong with the mags. Well, all you did was pull the mag, pull the follower, check inside to make sure nothing is gimmicked up there, put the follower back in, flip the spring upside down the other way. Okay, turn it from the bottom to top, top to bottom, depending on what it was. And guess what? Put the base plate back on, clicky clicky, you know, full 30 rounds and it works. So it's not always that the design is bad. It's just that somebody didn't know at the factory. Well, what spring went where maybe. Now the AK follower magnifically has not been proprietary, but these had just a slight bit of a smaller coil curl to the upper end. And I'm sure that's for the sake of compression consistency. Okay, so they definitely worked and they definitely were worth $5. But like I've said, if you end up with a whole bunch of seven round 45 ACP banks, let me give an example of a discussion I had with James Wesley Rawls years ago. And I kind of pointed out, and his argument was, you know, you take the old stuff you have and you obviously revenue, you take it, sell it so you can make money to buy the latest and the greatest or whatever your solution is. Well, my argument is, if you're motivated on this to begin with, Then you want to make sure that in the process If you bought them and paid for them, then you were invested in the process of preparing More mags is always better. So I have a whole bunch of seven round 45 ACP mags. Okay Well, I need to get rid of them because I want eight rounders No, you collect all the shekels you can you don't eat for a couple of days whenever you got to do and you go buy some eight round mags, too Now what have I said before about this? The seven rounders, do they work? Yep. Are they serviceable? Yep. Government issue? Yeah, most more. But the eight rounds give you one more round. Plus you still have the round in the chamber we've always talked about. So instead of eight, you're carrying nine rounds in the gun. Okay, that's cool. Those Salinas 45s are actually eight rounders now, but they made proprietary mags and that sucks. Okay. But In this case, the idea is you just added one more to the magazine, extended the mag down below the base of the weapon. Not a big deal. It works. Buy more mags. Don't get rid of any mags. You got a bunch of mags? Yep. Maybe even if they're tired? Yep. You know what? Those are the ones you can bury. You already paid for them. You're not as excited about them. Maybe you've used them a lot. Tell you what, grease them up, take them, break them down, clean them out, get the curving out of them. Make sure that they're slicked up all over. Lubricate everything. Mummify them with grease. Put them in their own, each one in their own Ziploc bag. Put all those little Ziploc bags inside another container, inside whatever tube or card or crate or clamshell box you're gonna put them in, you know, something that's airtight. And they're sitting there waiting for you when you realize that all those $25 special whiz-bang mags that you were using are all lost and missing on the battlefield. And you'd be happy if you had three mags no matter what they were made of. Well, because you had that extra cash that you, you know, it should say extra resource and you created that extra cash, now you go get your little E-tool out of your rig, go over to the grid coordinates, and move a little bit of dirt, pull that crate out, and reload your combat kit. Oh, wait a minute, you even have a spare weapon. That's right, Bob needed a spare weapon. And Bob needed a weapon, we lost his rifle. Bob lost his rifle actually. We did because we weren't keeping an eye on Bob. Bob got hurt. We dragged Bob away, but we didn't get the rifle he was carrying. So, well guess what? There's that not so pretty looking AR-15 that costs minimal money. It's a Delton. Here you go, Bob. I got an Anderson here. Do we got your choice, Delton or Anderson? Take your pick. Yeah, they're not pretty. Just standard rifles, M4s. Which one do you want? Okay, there you go. See how that works? Now everybody's back to 100% combat ready. So magazines and guns are for buying. And once you do have that policy, then remember, spare parts, spare parts, spare parts. If we were picking off the battlefield, something else I want to mention, it's Weapons Wednesday. We pick everything up off the battlefield. Broken gun parts, shattered or damaged magazines, I don't care what it is. The whole field gets stripped. Why? Well, because of what I just mentioned. Well, yeah, the magazine got shot. The hull is shattered, but the spring followers in pretty good shape. The base plate may or may not be intact. We know if it is fine, if not, we'll replace it with something else. But the followers there. So every part that I can get off of the magazine is a part that can help to build or rebuild another mag from two or three wrecked mags. I can build maybe one mag. The rest of the parts, I'm going to use those for bait. Okay, when you pull Battlefield Detritus from, you know, wherever, a lot of it's not going to be usable, but it looks good. If you want to use it for 80%, you know, again, accuracy, dummies, bait targets, guys, you need all the intricate junk. Really nice when you can add that touch. So if the little drone or the spy satellite or the overhead spy plane is taking pictures of the area, they don't just see that mannequin you've got tucked away in that fighting position that you can't be sure whether or not it's a person. But there's a couple magazines laying on the dead mags are worthless. You always remember everything you have, all it has to do is look good. Longs it looks like it's in one piece. You know what you do if you got one of a magazines been shot just to be safe You got any black duct tape got any green duct tape? You got someone's got a hole all the way through it Guess what don't worry about hammering it out the side that I got pushed through take a piece of tape right over top of that You got tape and junk and camouflage junk all over stuff. So nobody's gonna know but remember what this does is create high confidence because details count Okay, everything that you've got. A punk a junk weapon, you hammer it back together, you can screw the bent parts back together. That goes on that dummy mannequin slash target. By the way, you've also thermally activated from inside using a candle and an inner hull pocket, air pocket. You've got a thermal signature, the weapon equipment, everything's there. And if they zoom in for detail, the detail makes sense. You see how that works? And trust me, your camera technology is improved. If you think you're going to get some grainy pixelated whatever shot at, you know, nowadays, my God, look what you can get with your camera. It's in your hand. Take a look at what you can click. So understand that your deception ideas have to match that with regard to deception and, you know, with regard to deployed vehicles that are not deployed. camouflage nets need to be correct, everything needs to be squared away. Remember, the idea is to get your enemy waste resources and manpower, technology, and time. You constantly have to be ahead of the curve on that. Okay, you've got to constantly be thinking ahead. So everything that we pull, enemy uniforms that we strip from the corpses. Any equipment that shot up or busted up but still it still looks correct if it takes a little duct tape and a few things and a Little bit of spray paint to look like I'm camouflaging it to make it look correct That's more confidence building the enemy might waste resources aircraft artillery Intercept troops on the ground which means you can harvest more stuff because you lure them into a kill zone You bring them into where you want them remember that deception. There's a reason for it. You're fishing And you're burning enemy resources in the process too. Let's see next here real quick. Okay, also, 22s. No, we haven't really been talking about 22s. Somebody said, you don't have been talking about 22s much. Well, not everybody really has when ammunition for 22s went into the twilight zone. You notice that? It used to be there was a lot of discussion about 22s Ruger 1022 is still an excellent firearm. They're out there. You can buy them typically any day. There are a number of other 22s that have been available and it's flavor. It's a dealer's choice on that. I don't think there's any real priority. The big thing is magazines and again firing pin extractor ejector if the guns new you might actually be able to find parts. If it's not it'll be catch as catch can with companies like Gun Parts Corp, Sarco or Apex Gun Parts or whoever else might be out there that has a big inventory and a broad broad inventory at that. Not just big but you know what quite a few different subjects are covered including 22 caliber rifles. Now the big thing here again is ideally, if there is one .22 that I'd recommend, has to do with the utility work rifle is a bolt-action, older, single-shot, or magazine-fed, as in manually operated .22. There were a number of .22 adult rifles out there for years that have been available. available for many many years and Winchester Remington used to compete because these are actually these are off-the-wall utility competition rifles that were for the average marksman okay the guns are still out there and the neat thing about them is they can handle anything from CB cap all the way up to 22 long rifle now the reason that's good is because you never know what you're going to run into out there in the way of leftover 22 stuff I've run into Imperial short Imperial brand, 22 short. I've seen CB caps, which I mentioned. And one neat thing about a CB cap is it's lethal even with people at short range. But the difference is a CB cap doesn't, you don't need a silencer. It is so quiet that it doesn't draw attention. The advantage of the CB cap is Again, close quarter engagement, but with a rifle, you're getting all the energy out of it you possibly could. In reality, while the CB caps do not typically function in any firearm that's semi-automatic that I know of, the CB cap for individually loading and aiming for the base of the skull or again right to the temple for that kind of shooting, yeah, it would work just fine. And if you're trying to harvest equipment for that sentry or that person that's in the right place that is carrying an enemy weapon, might be a real good idea to think about how to be able to do it without any super special technology. Sorry about that. Anyway, as it is, one of the most important things To remember about 22 is keep it dry, keep it sealed, keep it in tins, keep it in Ziploc bags. I know most people are pretty sloppy about that because of the way it's sold. But one of the most important things to remember is, again, the fact that it's the cheapest ammunition on the planet, which is why it's packaged in little milk cartons, little plastic tubs. Little fake grenades, have you seen that one? Just like to do ammunition for, you know, airsoft. But the thing is that just because it's, you know, produced and packaged that way, doesn't mean you want to leave it that way. So I would recommend, again, repackaging, seal it. If, in fact, it's in a sealed container, leave that sealed container the way it is. That's fine. But Mr. Ziploc bag and then ammo canning or sealing up in another container that's preferably airtight is your first best choice with any of your 22 because it is the cheapest. The fulminate that's used for the Prima works just fine, but it's the least expensive solution they can come up with. So as far as how long it will last on the shelf is a matter of how it's treated. The powder is also the cheapest. The bullets are lead. In fact, there's typically no tin or anemone. They're purely a lead bullet. Now whether or not they've, you know, some companies have used whatever they have in the way of their bullet stock as far as the material. So it might have some tin and anemone in it, depending on who made it. CCI makes some top-end 22, as do several of the competition 22 types. And those are in a mixed alloy for most of them. Eli, Eli does a lot. In fact, you spend any amount of money you want on Eli 22, which you will run into out there. It'll work on every gun you got, but it's one of those things where it needs to be protected. 22 is money. Look at it that way, just like all ammo. Go ahead, call her, jump in there. Mark, you're talking about 22s. Didn't the, uh, didn't the, you know, Irish Republican army use those 22s? caliber pistols for a little trick called kneecapping that was pretty effective. Oh yeah well again the Ruger ended up over there big time along with the high standard 22s which were also again considered a competition pistol but a very popular gun for clandestine warfare operations the high standard 22s of the 50s to the Vietnam War era were silenced. They were all kinds of different packages. They produced them in up to a seven and a half inch barrel, just like they did the Model 41 Smith & Wesson. And yeah, for just aiming for a critical body part, everybody thinks about kneecapping, they think about a 12 gauge. But guys, you know, you don't want to get hit in the knees in any way, shape, or form. and 22s have a tendency to be a, again, a roller BB. They hit one spot, follow the path, less the least resistance, and they'll roll right around the joint. They'll bust a joint up, but they'll also tear up ligaments and tendons and all kinds of things. Same with an elbow. If you can't hit in a critical spot, the target can be engaged in what is considered to be a working point or a soft point, and the knees are one of them, yes. And again, didn't the Israelis use those 10-22s on the Palestinians during when they would start throwing the rocks and the slings? I read or saw some kind of a news article where some of the news people were claiming the Israelis were shooting. They were taking these 10-22 rifles. usually with a bull barrel bipod and probably a bur of scope and they were shooting those guys in the knees and in the shins. Brakes went through rifle. Right. And again, it's not necessarily lethal, but it creates a casualty. Two things happen. You may be able to wander off the battlefield, but you're also going to need medical care. So the idea is that they can find out where they're being fixed. Not just you know this so again there was a reason for why you were saying like with the Irish the idea was to send a message You got somebody wounded they're screwed up. They're not going back in and onto the battlefield Typically, they're either rear area from that point forward or they're discharged and the more cash Go ahead another thing like you were talking about in this build off that is the psychological aspects of of any kind of a protracted out guerrilla type action, the psychological stuff could be worked to one's advantage if done in the right way. Exactly. Well, again, this is where everybody sees the idea of spray-pray or volume fire. Accuracy is devastating at any range. Accuracy and minimal action for maximum result. The 22 will hold its own at short range purely determinant by the operator. Who's the shooter? I know guys that were national match shooters and it's like a couple times they were looking at, well this is years ago, but they were talking about how they were going to have the riot problem in the area. They issued out, this is in Flint, Michigan, they issued out weapons out of the arsenal, okay, or armory. And the one guy that I served with, Because what you got me again, you know, have you got any? Bold competition rifles that aren't issued out. Oh, yeah, we got something got some 22 is good That's what I want and the logic was that within a hundred yards with that bull barrel Winchester With the standard just regular old, you know commercial Errol scope on it Not the big beastie Errol the Errol target Matt was a target master or whatever target master range king Anyway, it was a straightforward scope, but it was a very accurate scope. And he was up on the roof with that because we didn't have any M14s we could issue out. And he said, you know what, just tell me what I want dotted and we'll be able to figure it out. And it's true because he was a President's 100, two different years in a row actually qualified for President's 100. But that it was the weapon, you know, it's the shooter, it's not the gun guys. Anything you can pull, anything you can find, you can make work. In this case, it was just logical because, A, there wasn't pretty much ammunition, but there was 22 ammunition on hand. That was another factor because most arsenals don't have ammo where they have guns. But there's 22 everywhere, which is the other reason. It is not a bad idea, for instance, to have a 22 in your backpack. You don't have to carry it as a primary combat weapon. But you know, we've talked about if you were looking at being a dragoon by the modern sense, and your backpack is your horse load, or your, what we said, it's the house load, but look at it with a dragoon, that's your horse pack, okay? What would you put into your horse pack so that no matter where you ended up being plopped down in the Midwest or in the United States, You could continue to fight whether you fight with a regiment, a regimental unit or are stuck as an unconventional warfare operator. What would you choose? Now I'll tell you what's really interesting. One of those new Rugers in 22 are super lightweight. You know the new Polymer 22s? I'm not excited about Polymer. Except if I'm tailoring something and I had the money and resources to do it, One of those little Polymer 22s that is basically a knockoff of the Ruger Mark II, which is the Plastine version, with about four or five magazines, with a couple of boxes, well, four or five boxes of Eli Competition 22. And everything packaged up minimally. You gotta have something to wrap that 22 in, so you might as well put a holster in there. You want to keep it as light as possible, but that goes in the backpack now I start running low on other stuff where I have to tailor my my purpose That 22 would be awful handy for a lot of work that needs to be done because I am NOT going to make a whole lot of noise if I can help it and I would point out that if you go standard Velocity, this is nothing everybody. I gotta have the Magnum guys at 22 standard velocity is a very quiet round, just like C.D. cap. So if I have a quantity of 22 standard velocity, not high velocity or hyper like the old bumblebee and yellow jacket and all the other ones they had out there, which by the way, print wild, something I should point out. Yeah, you get speed out of that, but because the bullets are the cheapest, You actually have an open your your pattern opens up with most of the hyper ballistic hyper speed 22 routes your pattern will not thumbprint It's gonna typically be spread out a lot more if you fire or see a pattern of 10 rounds out of a Ruger 10 22 and just sandbag it You can do this if you have a collection of 22 and if you haven't done it You need to anyway to see how your guns printing But you will find that like yellow jacket hornet Let's see, Hybriden, all of those that came out years ago, and there's still a bunch of them around, they all opened up. They had more penetration. They typically also had a little hollow point. They were using a little tiny conical hollow point. So they were supposed to deliver the energy where you needed it. But as far as being, say, a marksman knockout round, it was counting on a patter pattern. In other words, multiple hit with multiple trauma. as opposed to the idea of what we're talking about here, which is taking one round and delivering it with accuracy and putting the target down. And being ready with a follow-up. Don't assume that your one bullet did the job, but that's what it's, you know, if you know what you're doing, you know where to put the bullet, then the game should go down, but you're immediately ready to recover for a follow-up shot to be safe. Don't assume anything, okay? And by the way, it looks like you're not sure of it. Put another bullet in them while they're on the ground. I'm pointing this out. You know what? If you ever watched the movie The Patriot, okay? Let me point out, we always use movies as classrooms. And the ones shoot out scene after the church was burned and they're all the family members are going out for revenge and they don't tell the main character, right? When they have their engagement, he shoots the one character and the bad, the big bad guy, you know, the green, the green Dragoon commander. And he's laying there. Now he wasn't like me. Yeah, I like knives and yeah, I can seek revenge, but you know, it's gonna really be revengeful I'd pick one of those rifles up It looked like it was loaded or I'd pick one of the muskets up and I'd be road reloading it real fast And if you look in that movie the way he was laying with his butt cheeks towards me and his head laying away He wouldn't like the next three three moments Because I'd put a bullet right up his bung hole straight to the whole length of this torso And if he if he's almost dead then he's really dead But if he's faking it, I just gave him a new bung hole. Okay, and you know what, as soon as I shot him that first time, I'd be reloading just as fast, I'd shoot him a third time. That's just as hurtful as stabbing the guy. But you know what's important? Is you're far enough away, ain't nothing he could do about it. Just like shooting people down that have body armor on like in situations I've told you before. If they fall backwards, Aim for the, you know, if they fall on their back, aim for the groin, put one, two, or three shots right there, right fast, real now. Boom, boom, boom. Yeah, your body armor hit, knocked him down. Not even knocked the wind out of him. But I guarantee those three bullets going right up into his crotch and taking off his wiener and knocking a hole where his bung hole is and going the whole length of his body. Probably gonna make sure that that little secret police rat that was coming to confiscate the guns doesn't get up again. Now, if he falls towards you. Don't aim from the top of his head. He's probably wearing a helmet and you know what? They're in level four So what you want to do is aim to the left of or right of the helmet literally on the edge of the helmet That way the bullet will track through along the helmet hopefully pushing it in typically will Because it's not going directly at the ballistic orbit of the helmet But what it'll do is then allow the bullet to track down along the shoulder into the into the chest cavity And you've got a lateral wound there Either one of those ensures that one way or another your targets probably not going to make it It's going to take a lot of medical work to fix What is all going to have to be internal work internal surgery from coming in from outside to fix whatever you just broke? So if you can get in that way again, don't you get a call? I'm gonna get up close I got a look at it. No, you don't shoot him a few more times And then and by the way looks like he's laying there leave him right there and go full shoot another one There's more out there. Go ahead call her jibber there Yeah, but you know that knife it sure gave a whole lot of the drama to that scene You know the way he was doing that but get him back to your 10-22 Backup gun there. Rooker also makes a 10-22 breakdown breakdown in two pieces and It packs really short and then Max will make a special stock for it where the stock holds the barrel and the other receiver part together and the stock holds three extra, those little 10 round magazines, those three of those little 10 round magazines. Excellent. That's the package. That would be the perfect package right there. Yes. That's all I got. And don't forget the AR7, guys, don't forget the AR7 is still out there and about. Charter Arms originally made it, but that's a good point. Again, there's a lateral kit 22, so the 22 can be dealt with and can be, you know, be shelled literally as part of your backpack load. Well, Mark, you're telling us to carry another upper, yeah. You know, on that discussion with carrying a second upper, I will remind you again, this is why I've talked about going the lightest design, although a lot of you like the rail forward, the rail uppers, you know, the rail foregrip uppers. They are cool. But to be quite honest, your second gun, your second upper, if it's going to be carried, needs to be a pencil barrel, lightest barrel you possibly can find for it. Preferably an M4 or Car-15 type short stroke knockoff. Why? Because every on-site cut off of that upper helps, making it a lot easier to carry. And I'm more worried about just having that as a when I need to, I can change. It's not going to be my constant primary. My primary is what I've already committed to with the weapon away. I've got a configure that's in my arms. So the second line, the second tier assembly, should be lightest possible system so that you can take advantage of ammunition. Even if you don't, even if you're hoping that you can acquire some ammo, say you're carrying a 7.62x39 upper as a backup, which you should if you got a 5.56, either that or 300 blackout. You do want at least a couple of boxes of ammunition with that upper. Just a few doesn't have to be a hundred rounds because that's just add a lot more weight and you're still gonna be having to carry a regular combat load now Let's not forget. We're dropping the backpack the backpack. There's a reason they put quick releases on backpacks Do you remember that anybody remember the original Alice pack and what it looked like? Do you remember the configuration for the original? shoulder straps What were they called? They were called quick releases why? Because the idea wasn't free to run around with an extra 30 or 40 pounds of junk on your back in a combat situation. Now if you were moving and you had to continue to move through a situation, if you made contact, the idea was that the unit dropped its extraneous equipment and then fire maneuver, deal with the threat, recover the backpacks, continue with the mission. Most all of your newer packs to a degree have a either you can shrug it off quick or it has quick release clips So at least your cross your chest straps can be disconnected and you can shrug the backpack off pretty quick In a regular as a dragoon unit as a dragoon militia unit you're going in traditionally heavy In other words, if you ever looked at what a, why is it that the Hessians were worried about some, you know, they were worried about by the Colonials and considered to be pretty impressive. Have you ever seen what the inventory of weapons a Hessian soldier carried in the American War for Independence? They truly were considered heavy infantry. What made them heavy infantry? Why were they so successful? Well, each individually was responsible for a far greater array of weapons than pretty much everybody on the battlefield. British or American colonial didn't make any difference. The Hessians were the heavy infantry of the day. And because of that and the discipline and training, which was harsh, very harsh. They were a well organized, well oiled machine with the ability to put a lot of throw weight behind contact when it was made. They could draw on a number of weapons, literally draw a number of weapons at their personal disposal. The advantage is that we can tailor our technology accordingly. So as Dragoon militia slash Dragoon infantry or mounted, which again, that's what Dragoon's traditionally would be CAV. But they weren't cavalry in the cavalry sense. The horses were to get you to the battlefield area of activity. Then you dismounted and worked as advanced focused infantry. The Dragoon technology gave you the ability to get there with a lot of firepower, much like a rifle man during the American War for Independence was an elite soldier. Okay, well, dragoons fit into that category. When you see the term dragoon attached, they were a much more copacetic, well-disciplined, well-organized, and very well-equipped formation. That's what you need to organize as with regard to your support system. Again, you work with concentrated foods, foodstuffs. Remember, your best goes in your backpack. We've always talked about that in your reel and some of your concentrated foodstuffs. go on your tactical rig along with water. Water is still part of the formula no matter what. And a pint is a pound, the world around. The factor in all infantry operations still comes down to weight. And that's why, again, while in most cases I have no problem, I don't care what the weapon is, if I was tailoring to build a Dragoon unit, there are certain things I would do because the technology's off the shelf, reasonably priced, and it works. And yet the fact that I could, oh, here's another thing. If I could, I'd have every stinking infantryman carrying a 40 millimeter grenade launcher. If I had my way, and there's no reason not to, there's no reason except that government doesn't want to spend the money. I mean, because everybody's expendable. But in reality, if you were looking at building a Dragoon unit, and in this day and age with CNC machinery and all the technology off the shelf making stuff so punk cheap, I mean, cheap cost-wise, but still comparable quality. There's no reason that everybody isn't carrying a 40 millimeter grenade launcher under every every air M16 model we have What would the advantage be? Well, I've said this before can you imagine 120 men focusing 140 40 millimeter grenade round into an area 140 people focusing on an objective and firing as part of a kickoff 120 or 130 40 millimeter grenade rounds into the into the enemy's front and or the rear or in all around them. That's like a Kat Youshka battery. A poor man's little Kat Youshka battery. Multiple rocket launcher. Think about it, but it's not a rocket launcher, it's just grenades. I'll get out to 300 yards, 600 if you want a weebo wobble, but at close range at 300, impressing like an ambush or whatever. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, explosive radius, you can be already making moving forward to make contact and as quickly as you've launched a 40 millimeter grenade round, you're already dumping a 30 round magazine into the objective. Think about that. So just something to take into consideration. Now the problem is 40 millimeter grenades cost you weight. So there's another thing, part of that weight, you know, time and distance formula, and the weight factor is always part of what you have to work into the theme. Remember, this is not a video game. You don't click, and the backpack is full of goodies, no matter how many goodies there are. In this case, you are limited, so you have to tailor accordingly. Anyway, ideas, not just complaining about the problems. Gentlemen, we are being betrayed. Gentlemen, don't send any money to the Republicans. They're not gonna do anything for you, but betray you. Look at what the Republicans are doing in Washington. Do not send them a dime. Do not donate anything to any party. You might as well walk that money out back and put it on the burn pile and strike a match. So instead, take any money that you would have perhaps made the mistake of sending to an idiot politician who would just automatically betray you, which the Republicans will, then instead, spend it on magazines, ammunition, weapons, food, fuel, whatever you need to get better prepared for what we know has to happen. It's that simple. Anyway, we are at the top. For everybody out there, it is Weapons Wednesday coming to a close. Organize We are on the mark for day and night. Excellent music to close with. We'll be back tomorrow, same time, and taking over. God bless. Bye-bye.
